Multicast/replicated (MCR) registers on Intel hardware are a purely
GT-specific concept.  Rather than leaving MCR register handling spread
across several places throughout the driver (intel_uncore.c, intel_gt.c,
etc.) with confusing combinations of handler functions living in
different namespaces, let's consolidate it all into a single place
(intel_gt_mcr.c) and provide a more consistent and clearly-documented
interface for the rest of the driver to access such registers:

 * intel_gt_mcr_read -- unicast read from specific instance
 * intel_gt_mcr_read_any[_fw] -- unicast read from any non-terminated
   instance
 * intel_gt_mcr_unicast_write -- unicast write to specific instance
 * intel_gt_mcr_multicast_write[_fw] -- multicast write to all instances


v2:
 - Reference the new kerneldoc from i915.rst.  (Jani)
 - Tweak the wording of the documentation for a couple functions to
   clarify the difference between "_fw" and non-"_fw" forms.
