docs: Pull LKMM documentation into dev-tools book
Currently, LKMM docs are not included in any of kernel documentation
books.
Commit e40573a43d16 ("docs: put atomic*.txt and memory-barriers.txt
into the core-api book") covered plain-text docs under Documentation/
by using the "include::" directive along with the ":literal:" option.
As LKMM docs are not under Documentation/, the same approach would not
work due to the directive's restriction.
As a matter of fact, kernel documentation has an extended directive
by the name of "kernel-include::", which loosens such restriction and
accepts any files under the kernel source tree.
Rather than moving LKMM docs around, use the latter and pull them into
the dev-tools book next to KCSAN.
