aadc0cd52f docs: sysctl/fs: re-order, prettify
This brings the text markup in line with sysctl/abi and
sysctl/kernel:

* the entries are ordered alphabetically
* the table of contents is automatically generated
* markup is used as appropriate for constants etc.

The content isn't fully up-to-date but the obsolete entries are gone,
so remove the kernel version mention.

c46ff5c5b8 docs: sysctl/fs: merge the aio sections
There are two sections documenting aio-nr and aio-max-nr, merge them.
I kept the second explanation of aio-nr, which seems clearer to me,
along with the effects of the values from the first section.

6b2484e13a Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: Documentation/admin-guide
Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  If not .svg:
    For each line:
      If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
        For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
          If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
          return 200 OK and serve the same content:
            Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

5704324702 docs: admin-guide: move sysctl directory to it
The stuff under sysctl describes /sys interface from userspace
point of view. So, add it to the admin-guide and remove the
:orphan: from its index file.
