Alan Maguire 7fb20f9e90 bpf, doc: Remove references to warning message when using bpf_trace_printk()
The BPF helper bpf_trace_printk() no longer uses trace_printk();
it is now triggers a dedicated trace event.  Hence the described
warning is no longer present, so remove the discussion of it as
it may confuse people.

Fixes: ac5a72ea5c ("bpf: Use dedicated bpf_trace_printk event instead of trace_printk()")

Jesper Dangaard Brouer 1a6ac1d59d bpf, doc: convert bpf_design_QA.rst to use RST formatting
The RST formatting is done such that that when rendered or converted
to different formats, an automatic index with links are created to the
subsections.

Thus, the questions are created as sections (or subsections), in-order
to get the wanted auto-generated FAQ/QA index.

Special thanks to Quentin Monnet <quentin.monnet@netronome.com> who
have reviewed and corrected both RST formatting and GitHub rendering
issues in this file.  Those commits have been squashed.

I've manually tested that this also renders nicely if included as part
of the kernel 'make htmldocs'.  As the end-goal is for this to become
more integrated with kernel-doc project/movement.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer 192092faa0 bpf, doc: rename txt files to rst files
This will cause them to get auto rendered, e.g. when viewing them on GitHub.
Followup patches will correct the content to be RST compliant.

Also adjust README.rst to point to the renamed files.
