EventDev i.e consumer needs to be started before starting the
event producers.
Update documentation of EventDev and EventDev adapters.

Adding all the eventdev adapter maintainers for the feedback.
It looks good to me as it is an natural flow(i.e
we need to start eventdev first to consume the adapter events)

IMO, It is better to add @note under the all the *_adapter_start() APIs
to capture the notes on doxygen.

I agree that a @note under the *_adapter_start() APIs would be more discoverable, or perhaps it could be mentioned in both places.  Looks good otherwise.
