Add component documentation for media_player/anthemav (#1701)

* media_player/anthemav: Initial Commit

Adding preliminary component page for media_player/anthemav with logo and
rudimentary configuration information.  This is just a placeholder so I could
verify my local rake setup and confirm that I can maintain the page.

* media_player/anthemav component page content

* Presuming version 0.36 for next release

* Why does my proofreading ability only improve post commit?

* Amend options to reflect changes in platform

* Style changes for conformity

* Copy Paste Foul

Both [Anthem]'s current and last generation of A/V Receivers and and Processors
support IP-based, network control. This Home Assistant platform adds proper
"local push" support for any of these receivers on your network.
## {% linkable_title Supported Models %}
* MRX 520, MRX 720, MRX 1120, and AVM 60
* MRX 310, MRX 510, MRX 710
Support is provided through the Python [anthemav] module. Older, RS-232
serial-based units like the D2v use a different protocol entirely and are not
currently supported.

## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
media_player:
- platform: anthemav
host: 10.0.0.42
port: 14999
```
### Configuration Variables
- **host** (*Required*): The host name or address of the device.
- **port** (*Optional*): The port number. Defaults to 14999.
- **name** (*Optional*): The name of the device used in the frontend.
## Notes and Limitations
- The tuner is currently unsupported as are the `media_player` play, pays,
prev, and next controls.
- Enabling this platform will set and enforce "Standby IP Control On" in your Anthem
device. You almost certainly want this. If you disable it on the device, it
will just get re-enabled by Home Assistant.
- Only Zone 1 is currently supported.
<p class='note warning'>
This platform will maintain a persistent connection to the network control
port which will prevent any other application from communicating with the
receiver. This includes the Anthem iOS and Android remote control apps as
well as the ARC-2 Anthem Room Calibration software. You will need to disable
this platform and restart Home Assistant if you want to use another
application that makes use of the network control port.
<br /><br />
*The underlying Python module has hooks for halting and resuming the network
connection but those functions are currently unsupported by the Home
Assistant platform.*
