Andrey Ignatov f5bfcd953d 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
  95043    ingress                         tw_ipt_ingress
  95048    ingress                         tw_ingress
