In legacy sysfs GPIO, when using poll(2) on the sysfs GPIO value for
state change awaiting, a subsequent read(2) is required for consuming
the event, which the doc recommends the use of lseek(2) or
close-and-reopen to reset the file offset afterwards.
The recommendations however, require at least 2 syscalls to consume
the event. Gladly, use of pread(2) require only 1 syscall for the
consumption. Let's advertise this usage by prioritizing its placement.

Clarify that line values are logical, not physical, by replacing high/low

The GPIO sysfs API is long obsolete, so highlight this even further
by moving it into an obsolete APIs section in both the admin-guide
and userspace-api books.
