[PATCH v2 0/3] Document LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_RESOLVE_UNIX

Thanks for the review!

This documents the LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_RESOLVE_UNIX feature,
introduced in the upcoming Linux 7.1 (Landlock ABI v9).

I applied the suggestions unmodified in most cases.  For the ABI
versions, I used the same style as in the landlock_restrict_self(2)
manpage, which I like for its succinctness.

* Patch 1: should already be applied (including it just for
  completeness, because it's not reflected in the git.kernel.org
  mirror yet)

* Patch 2: Changes the ABI version style for existing documentation,
  this is fine to apply before Linux 7.1.

* Patch 3: Describes the new "resolve UNIX" functionality in Linux 7.1

Change Log
==========

V2:
  - s/only applies/applies only/.
  - Use italics for "*" in LANDLOCK_SCOPE_*.
  - s/resolve attempt/resolution attempt/
  - ABI version indicators: Use cardinals for ABI versions, and refer
    to it next to tagged paragraph titles where possible.  Also,
    introduce an additional preparation commit to fix this up for the
    exitisting documentation.
  - Use C99 comments in source code example
