[3]. A port represents an interface in a device, and an endpoint
represents a connection to that interface.

Address a few issues in ACPI DSD graph documentation: - the extension for port nodes is data extension (and not property extension), - clean up language in port hierarchical data extension definition, - add examples of port and endpoint packages, - port property value is the number of the "port" and not the number of the "port node", - remove word "individual" from endpoint data node description, it was redundant, - remove extra "The" in endpoint property description, - refer to hierarchical data extension keys and targets instead of first and second package list entries.
