Mauro Carvalho Chehab d3122273bd docs: security: landlock.rst: avoid using ReST :doc:`foo` markup
The :doc:`foo` tag is auto-generated via automarkup.py.
So, use the filename at the sources, instead of :doc:`foo`.

Mickaël Salaün 5526b45083 landlock: Add user and kernel documentation
Add a first document describing userspace API: how to define and enforce
a Landlock security policy.  This is explained with a simple example.
The Landlock system calls are described with their expected behavior and
current limitations.

Another document is dedicated to kernel developers, describing guiding
principles and some important kernel structures.

This documentation can be built with the Sphinx framework.
