ipv6: ioam: Documentation for new IOAM sysctls

Add documentation for new IOAM sysctls:
 - ioam6_id and ioam6_id_wide: two per-namespace sysctls
 - ioam6_enabled, ioam6_id and ioam6_id_wide: three per-interface sysctls

Example of IOAM configuration based on the following simple topology:

 _____              _____              _____
|     | eth0  eth0 |     | eth1  eth0 |     |
|  A  |.----------.|  B  |.----------.|  C  |
|_____|            |_____|            |_____|

1) Node and interface IDs can be configured for IOAM:

  # IOAM ID of A = 1, IOAM ID of A.eth0 = 11
  (A) sysctl -w net.ipv6.ioam6_id=1
  (A) sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth0.ioam6_id=11

  # IOAM ID of B = 2, IOAM ID of B.eth0 = 21, IOAM ID of B.eth1 = 22
  (B) sysctl -w net.ipv6.ioam6_id=2
  (B) sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth0.ioam6_id=21
  (B) sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth1.ioam6_id=22

  # IOAM ID of C = 3, IOAM ID of C.eth0 = 31
  (C) sysctl -w net.ipv6.ioam6_id=3
  (C) sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth0.ioam6_id=31

  Note that "_wide" IDs equivalents can be configured the same way.

2) Each node can be configured to form an IOAM domain. For instance,
   we allow IOAM from A to C only (not the reverse path), i.e. enable
   IOAM on ingress for B.eth0 and C.eth0:

  (B) sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth0.ioam6_enabled=1
  (C) sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth0.ioam6_enabled=1

3) An IOAM domain (e.g. ID=123) is defined and made known to each node:

  (A) ip ioam namespace add 123
  (B) ip ioam namespace add 123
  (C) ip ioam namespace add 123

4) Finally, an IOAM Pre-allocated Trace can be inserted in traffic sent
   by A when C (e.g. db02::2) is the destination:

  (A) ip -6 route add db02::2/128 encap ioam6 trace type 0x800000 ns 123
      size 12 dev eth0
