To better organize the information, add a microcontrollers section and
move/link the GuC, HuC and DMC documentation under it. Also add a small
intro.

+================

+Starting from gen9, three microcontrollers are available on the HW: the
+graphics microcontroller (GuC), the HEVC/H.265 microcontroller (HuC) and the
+display microcontroller (DMC). The driver is responsible for loading the
+firmwares on the microcontrollers; the GuC and HuC firmwares are transferred
