doc: media: Document MM21 tiled format
MM21 has been documented through two software implementation [0] in libyuv and [2] GStreamer. This format is similar to other tiled format, though it uses uneven tile sizes. The luma tiles are 16x32 while the chroma tile have a subsampled size of 16x16. This is the uncompressed cousin of V4L2_PIX_FMT_MT21C and shares its tiling pattern and alignment.
