The documentation for the tip tree is really in quite a similar
spirit to the netdev-FAQ. Move the netdev-FAQ to the process docs
as well.

Add a document to the subsystem/maintainer handbook section, which explains
what the tip tree is, how it operates and what rules and expectations it
has.
[ bp:
- Add a SPDX identifier, work in most comments from the thread.
- 9bf19b78a2 ("Documentation/submitting-patches: Document the SoB
chain") is also in the main Documentation but I'm leaving the
paragraph here because it has the proper structure - text talks about
SoBs and referencing somewhere else would interrupt the flow.
- Move backtraces in changelogs to main submitting-patches.rst.
- "Patch version information" is explained to a great detail in
submitting-patches.rst too.
- Hyperlink resend reminders section.

General rules for patch submission, coding style and related details are
available, but most subsystems have their subsystem-specific extra rules
which differ or go beyond the common rules.
Mark suggested to add a subsystem/maintainer handbook section, where
subsystem maintainers can explain their specific quirks.
Add the section and link to it from the submitting-patches document.
