docs: power: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst

Convert the PM documents to ReST, in order to allow them to
build with Sphinx.

The conversion is actually:
  - add blank lines and indentation in order to identify paragraphs;
  - fix tables markups;
  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust title markups.

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.

IV. Why do we do that?
======================
Generally speaking, there is a couple of reasons to use the freezing of tasks:
1. The principal reason is to prevent filesystems from being damaged after
hibernation. At the moment we have no simple means of checkpointing
filesystems, so if there are any modifications made to filesystem data and/or
metadata on disks, we cannot bring them back to the state from before the
modifications. At the same time each hibernation image contains some
filesystem-related information that must be consistent with the state of the
on-disk data and metadata after the system memory state has been restored from
the image (otherwise the filesystems will be damaged in a nasty way, usually
making them almost impossible to repair). We therefore freeze tasks that might
cause the on-disk filesystems' data and metadata to be modified after the
hibernation image has been created and before the system is finally powered off.
The majority of these are user space processes, but if any of the kernel threads
may cause something like this to happen, they have to be freezable.

system is finally powered off. The majority of these are user space
processes, but if any of the kernel threads may cause something like this
to happen, they have to be freezable.
2. Next, to create the hibernation image we need to free a sufficient amount of
memory (approximately 50% of available RAM) and we need to do that before
devices are deactivated, because we generally need them for swapping out. Then,
after the memory for the image has been freed, we don't want tasks to allocate
additional memory and we prevent them from doing that by freezing them earlier.
[Of course, this also means that device drivers should not allocate substantial
amounts of memory from their .suspend() callbacks before hibernation, but this
is a separate issue.]

callbacks before hibernation, but this is a separate issue.]
3. The third reason is to prevent user space processes and some kernel threads
from interfering with the suspending and resuming of devices. A user space
process running on a second CPU while we are suspending devices may, for
example, be troublesome and without the freezing of tasks we would need some
safeguards against race conditions that might occur in such a case.

4. Another reason for freezing tasks is to prevent user space processes from
realizing that hibernation (or suspend) operation takes place. Ideally, user
space processes should not notice that such a system-wide operation has occurred
and should continue running without any problems after the restore (or resume
from suspend). Unfortunately, in the most general case this is quite difficult
to achieve without the freezing of tasks. Consider, for example, a process
that depends on all CPUs being online while it's running. Since we need to
disable nonboot CPUs during the hibernation, if this process is not frozen, it
may notice that the number of CPUs has changed and may start to work incorrectly
