The "SEE ALSO" sections of bpftool's manual pages refer to bpf(2),
bpf-helpers(7), then all existing bpftool man pages (save the current
one).
This leads to nearly-identical lists being duplicated in all manual
pages. Ideally, when a new page is created, all lists should be updated
accordingly, but this has led to omissions and inconsistencies multiple
times in the past.
Let's take it out of the RST files and generate the "SEE ALSO" sections
automatically in the Makefile when generating the man pages. The lists
are not really useful in the RST anyway because all other pages are
available in the same directory.
v3:
- Fix conflict with a previous patchset that introduced RST2MAN_OPTS
variable passed to rst2man.
v2:
- Use "echo -n" instead of "printf" in Makefile, to avoid any risk of
passing a format string directly to the command.

Nearly all man pages for bpftool have the same common set of option
flags (--help, --version, --json, --pretty, --debug). The description is
duplicated across all the pages, which is more difficult to maintain if
the description of an option changes. It may also be confusing to sort
out what options are not "common" and should not be copied when creating
new manual pages.
Let's move the description for those common options to a separate file,
which is included with a RST directive when generating the man pages.

The optional parameter "map MAP" can be added to "bpftool iter"
command to create a bpf iterator for map elements. For example,
bpftool iter pin ./prog.o /sys/fs/bpf/p1 map id 333
For map element bpf iterator "map MAP" parameter is required.
Otherwise, bpf link creation will return an error.
Quentin Monnet kindly provided bash-completion implementation
for new "map MAP" option.

Bring minor improvements to bpftool documentation. Fix or harmonise
formatting, update map types (including in interactive help), improve
description for "map create", fix a build warning due to a missing line
after the double-colon for the "bpftool prog profile" example,
complete/harmonise/sort the list of related bpftool man pages in
footers.
v2:
- Remove (instead of changing) mark-up on "value" in bpftool-map.rst,
when it does not refer to something passed on the command line.
- Fix an additional typo ("hexadeximal") in the same file.

Currently, only one command is supported
bpftool iter pin <bpf_prog.o> <path>
It will pin the trace/iter bpf program in
the object file <bpf_prog.o> to the <path>
where <path> should be on a bpffs mount.
For example,
$ bpftool iter pin ./bpf_iter_ipv6_route.o \
/sys/fs/bpf/my_route
User can then do a `cat` to print out the results:
$ cat /sys/fs/bpf/my_route

The implementation for ipv6_route iterator is in one of subsequent
patches.
This patch also added BPF_LINK_TYPE_ITER to link query.
In the future, we may add additional parameters to pin command
by parameterizing the bpf iterator. For example, a map_id or pid
may be added to let bpf program only traverses a single map or task,
similar to kernel seq_file single_open().
We may also add introspection command for targets/iterators by
leveraging the bpf_iter itself.
