doc-rst: linux_tv: fix some warnings due to '*'

Unescaped * causes warnings on Sphinx.

Add an escape at hist-v4l2 occurrences.

At libv4l-introduction, the best is do declare the function
prototypes as C code.

:ref:`close() <func-close>` function.
- int v4l2_dup(int fd) - operates like the standard dup() function,

duplicating a file handler.
- int v4l2_ioctl (int fd, unsigned long int request, ...) - operates

default behavior through the v4l2_flags argument. Currently,
v4l2_flags can be ``V4L2_DISABLE_CONVERSION``, to disable format
conversion.

- :c:type:`int v4l2_set_control(int fd, int cid, int value)` - This function
takes a value of 0 - 65535, and then scales that range to the actual

not locked sets the cid to the scaled value.
- int v4l2_get_control(int fd, int cid) - This function returns a

some reason, or some error occurred 0 is returned.
