As the usage of kfuncs grows, we are starting to form consensus on the
kinds of attributes and annotations that kfuncs can have. To better help
developers make sense of the various options available at their disposal
to present an unstable API to the BPF users, document the various kfunc
flags and annotations, their expected usage, and explain the process of
defining and registering a kfunc set.

This commit fixes the display of the BPF documentation in the sidebar
when rendered as HTML.
Before this patch, the sidebar would render as follows for some
sections:
| BPF Documentation
|- BPF Type Format (BTF)
|- BPF Type Format (BTF)
This was due to creating a heading in index.rst followed by
a sphinx toctree, where the file referenced carries the same
title as the section heading.
To fix this I applied a pattern that has been established in other
subfolders of Documentation:
1. Re-wrote index.rst to have a single toctree
2. Split the sections out in to their own files
Additionally maps.rst and programs.rst make use of a glob pattern to
include map_* or prog_* rst files in their toctree, meaning future map
or program type documentation will be automatically included.

Patch set [1] introduced BTF_KIND_TAG to allow tagging
declarations for struct/union, struct/union field, var, func
and func arguments and these tags will be encoded into
dwarf. They are also encoded to btf by llvm for the bpf target.
After BTF_KIND_TAG is introduced, we intended to use it
for kernel __user attributes. But kernel __user is actually
a type attribute. Upstream and internal discussion showed
it is not a good idea to mix declaration attribute and
type attribute. So we proposed to introduce btf_type_tag
as a type attribute and existing btf_tag renamed to
btf_decl_tag ([2]).
This patch renamed BTF_KIND_TAG to BTF_KIND_DECL_TAG and some
other declarations with *_tag to *_decl_tag to make it clear
the tag is for declaration. In the future, BTF_KIND_TYPE_TAG
might be introduced per [3].

This removes the libbpf_api.rst file from the kernel documentation.
The intention for this file was to pull documentation from comments
above API functions in libbpf. However, due to limitations of the
kernel documentation system, this API documentation could not be
versioned, which is counterintuative to how users expect to use it.
There is also currently no doc comments, making this a blank page.
Once the kernel comment documentation is actually contributed, it
will still exist in the kernel repository, just in the code itself.
A seperate site is being spun up to generate documentaiton from those
comments in a way in which it can be versioned properly.
This also reconfigures the bpf documentation index page to make it
easier to sync to the previously mentioned documentaiton site.

This patch is meant to start the initiative to document libbpf.
It includes .rst files which are text documentation describing building,
API naming convention, as well as an index to generated API documentation.
In this approach the generated API documentation is enabled by the kernels
existing kernel documentation system which uses sphinx. The resulting docs
would then be synced to kernel.org/doc
You can test this by running `make htmldocs` and serving the html in
Documentation/output. Since libbpf does not yet have comments in kernel
doc format, see kernel.org/doc/html/latest/doc-guide/kernel-doc.html for
an example so you can test this.
The advantage of this approach is to use the existing sphinx
infrastructure that the kernel has, and have libbpf docs in
the same place as everything else.
The current plan is to have the libbpf mirror sync the generated docs
and version them based on the libbpf releases which are cut on github.
This patch includes the addition of libbpf_api.rst which pulls comment
documentation from header files in libbpf under tools/lib/bpf/. The comment
docs would be of the standard kernel doc format.

LLVM upstream commit https://reviews.llvm.org/D102712 made some changes
to bpf relocations to make them llvm linker lld friendly. The scope of
existing relocations R_BPF_64_{64,32} is narrowed and new relocations
R_BPF_64_{ABS32,ABS64,NODYLD32} are introduced.
Let us add some documentation about llvm bpf relocations so people can
understand how to resolve them properly in their respective tools.

pahole starts to use libbpf definitions and APIs since v1.13 after the
commit 21507cd3e97b ("pahole: add libbpf as submodule under lib/bpf").
It works well with the git repository because the libbpf submodule will
use "git submodule update --init --recursive" to update.
Unfortunately, the default github release source code does not contain
libbpf submodule source code and this will cause build issues, the tarball
from https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole.git/ is same with
github, you can get the source tarball with corresponding libbpf submodule
codes from
https://fedorapeople.org/~acme/dwarves
This change documents the above issues to give more information so that
we can get the tarball from the right place, early discussion is here:
