media: docs: move user-facing docs to the admin guide
Most of the driver-specific documentation is meant to help users of the media subsystem. Move them to the admin-guide. It should be noticed, however, that several of those files are outdated and will require further work in order to make them useful again.

+Introduction
+============
+
+The main development site and GIT repository for these
+drivers is https://linuxtv.org.
+
+The DVB mailing list linux-dvb is hosted at vger. Please see
+http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#linux-media for details.
+
+There are also some other old lists hosted at https://linuxtv.org/lists.php. Please check the archive https://linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/.
+
+The media subsystem Wiki is hosted at https://linuxtv.org/wiki/.
+Please check it before asking newbie questions on the list.
+
+API documentation is documented at the Kernel. You'll also find useful
+documentation at: https://linuxtv.org/docs.php.
+
+You may also find useful material at https://linuxtv.org/downloads/.
+
+In order to get firmware from proprietary drivers, there's a script at
+the kernel tree, at scripts/get_dvb_firmware.
