We recently added the bpf_cpumask_first_and() kfunc, and changed
bpf_cpumask_any() / bpf_cpumask_any_and() to
bpf_cpumask_any_distribute() and bpf_cpumask_any_distribute_and()
respectively. This patch adds an entry for the bpf_cpumask_first_and()
kfunc, and updates the documentation for the *any* kfuncs to the new
names.

Now that the kfunc no longer exists, we can remove it and instead
describe how RCU can be used to get a struct bpf_cpumask from a map
value. This patch updates the BPF documentation accordingly.

__kptr meant to store PTR_UNTRUSTED kernel pointers inside bpf maps.
The concept felt useful, but didn't get much traction,
since bpf_rdonly_cast() was added soon after and bpf programs received
a simpler way to access PTR_UNTRUSTED kernel pointers
without going through restrictive __kptr usage.
Rename __kptr_ref -> __kptr and __kptr -> __kptr_untrusted to indicate
its intended usage.
The main goal of __kptr_untrusted was to read/write such pointers
directly while bpf_kptr_xchg was a mechanism to access refcnted
kernel pointers. The next patch will allow RCU protected __kptr access
with direct read. At that point __kptr_untrusted will be deprecated.

Now that we've added a series of new cpumask kfuncs, we should document
them so users can easily use them. This patch adds a new cpumasks.rst
file to document them.
