f28ef96d7b tools: bpftool: Include common options from separate file
Nearly all man pages for bpftool have the same common set of option
flags (--help, --version, --json, --pretty, --debug). The description is
duplicated across all the pages, which is more difficult to maintain if
the description of an option changes. It may also be confusing to sort
out what options are not "common" and should not be copied when creating
new manual pages.

Let's move the description for those common options to a separate file,
which is included with a RST directive when generating the man pages.
