Documentation: update to AcrnGT official name

Browse Source 
Update the ACRN documentation to use the official name of GVT-g
in ACRN to "AcrnGT" (ACRN-GT was previously widely used).

Also update the few occurences of "GVT-G" to "GVT-g" to be
consistent across our documentation. This includes a couple of
file name updates.

GVT-g is Intel's open source GPU virtualization solution and is up-streamed to
the Linux kernel. Its implementation over KVM is named KVMGT, over Xen it is
named XenGT, and over ACRN it is named ACRN-GT. GVT-g can exports multiple
named XenGT, and over ACRN it is named AcrnGT. GVT-g can exports multiple
virtual GPU (vGPU) instances for virtual machine system (VM). A VM could be
assigned one vGPU instance. The guest OS graphic driver needs minor
modification to drive the vGPU adapter in a VM. Every vGPU instance will adopt
the full HW GPU’s accelerate capability for 3D render and display.
