staging: iio: documentation rewrite and cleanup of sysfs documetation

Change to capital syntax for documetation e.g. 'inX-inY_raw'
Use multiple 'What:' entries rather than wild cards or options so
as to make the documentation clearer and easier to search.
Some trivial spelling fixes.

 Description:
-		Period of time (in seconds) over which the raw channel value
-		is averaged before being compared with the threshold set in
-		accel_x0_thresh[_rising|_falling]_meanperiod.  If direction is
-		not specified then this mean period applies to both directions.
+		Specifies the value of rate of change threshold that the
+		device is comparing against for the events enabled by
+		<type>[Z][_name]_roc[_rising|falling]_en.
+		If separate attributes exist for the two directions,
+		but direction is not specified for this attribute,
+		then a single threshold value applies to both directions.
+		The raw or input element of the name indicates whether the
+		value is in raw device units or in processed units (as _raw
+		and _input do on sysfs direct channel read attributes).
