bpf, docs: Split general purpose eBPF documentation out of filter.rst
...
filter.rst starts out documenting the classic BPF and then spills into
introducing and documentating eBPF. Move the eBPF documentation into
rwo new files under Documentation/bpf/ for the instruction set and
the verifier and link to the BPF documentation from filter.rst.
