docs: block: convert to ReST
Rename the block documentation files to ReST, add an index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html output via the Sphinx build system. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>

+============================
+Kyber I/O scheduler tunables
+============================
+
+The only two tunables for the Kyber scheduler are the target latencies for
+reads and synchronous writes. Kyber will throttle requests in order to meet
+these target latencies.
+
+read_lat_nsec
+-------------
+Target latency for reads (in nanoseconds).
+
+write_lat_nsec
+--------------
+Target latency for synchronous writes (in nanoseconds).
