Rename RSD doc file to match title for sorting 
The list of driver docs are sorted based on their file names, but since
the name was rsd* but the title was "Intel RSD...", it would show up in
the list out of order. This updates the file name so the sorting works
right.

Intel Rack Scale Design (RSD) driver

The Intel Rack Scale Design volume driver is a block storage driver providing NVMe-oF support for RSD storage.

System requirements

To use the RSD driver, the following requirements are needed:

  • The driver only supports RSD API at version 2.4 or later.
  • The driver requires rsd-lib.
  • cinder-volume should be running on one of the composed node in RSD, and have access to the PODM url.
  • All the nova-compute services should be running on the composed nodes in RSD.
  • All the cinder-volume and nova-compute nodes should have installed dmidecode and the latest nvme-cli with connect/disconnect subcommands.

Supported operations

  • Create, delete volumes.
  • Attach, detach volumes.
  • Copy an image to a volume.
  • Copy a volume to an image.
  • Create, delete snapshots.
  • Create a volume from a snapshot.
  • Clone a volume.
  • Extend a volume.
  • Get volume statistics.

Configuration

On cinder-volume nodes, using the following configurations in your /etc/cinder/cinder.conf:

volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.rsd.RSDDriver

The following table contains the configuration options supported by the RSD driver:
