Chris rightfully suggested that documenting fences without documenting
the BO tiling tracking doesn't make much sense, so fix that.
The important bit to stress here (since it lead to some confusion) is
the GEM doesn't really care about tiling. Except for a few select cases
where the kernel needs to manage something that userspace can't take
care of: Namely the limited number of fences and fixing up swizzling,
although we still fail at the later.
v2: Move the low-level tiling/swizzling functions and kerneldoc to
i915_gem_fence.c and leave only the userspace interface here.

It fits more with the low-level fence code, and this move leaves only
the userspace tiling ioctl handling in i915_gem_tiling.c.

v2: Clarify that this is about fence _registers_. Also clarify that
the fence code revokes cpu ptes and not gtt ptes. Both suggested by
Chris.

No code changes, just moving all the fence related code into a
separate file (and avoiding a bunch of forward declarations while at
it).
