Image processing scan_interval doc updates (#7097)
* Use the correct bear. An incredibly picky edit. I'm sorry. * Move scan_interval documentation from the facebox bage up to the main image_processing page, as it it useful to all image processing entities * Add explicit example for setting scan_interval * Be explicit about which components are being referred to * Add notes on microsoft face detect and microsoft face identify pages that scan_interval should be applied

[Image processing components](https://www.home-assistant.io/components/image_processing/) process the image from a camera at a fixed period given by the `scan_interval`. This leads to excessive processing if the image on the camera hasn't changed, as the default `scan_interval` is 10 seconds. You can override this by adding to your config `scan_interval: 10000` (setting the interval to 10,000 seconds), and then call the `image_processing.scan` service when you actually want to perform processing.
