net: documentation: build a directory structure for drivers
Documentation/networking/ is full of cryptically named files with
driver documentation. This makes finding interesting information
at a glance really hard. Move all those files into a directory
called device_drivers (since not all drivers are for device) and
fix up references.
RFC v0.1 -> RFC v1:
- also add .txt suffix to the files which are missing it (Quentin)
