bpf: Document BPF_F_QUERY_EFFECTIVE flag
Document BPF_F_QUERY_EFFECTIVE flag, mostly to clarify how it affects
attach_flags what may not be obvious and what may lead to confision.
Specifically attach_flags is returned only for target_fd but if programs
are inherited from an ancestor cgroup then returned attach_flags for
current cgroup may be confusing. For example, two effective programs of
same attach_type can be returned but w/o BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI in
attach_flags.
Simple repro:
# bpftool c s /sys/fs/cgroup/path/to/task
ID AttachType AttachFlags Name
# bpftool c s /sys/fs/cgroup/path/to/task effective
ID AttachType AttachFlags Name
