bpf: Document BPF_PROG_ATTACH syscall command

Document the prog attach command in more detail, based on git commits:
* commit f4324551489e ("bpf: add BPF_PROG_ATTACH and BPF_PROG_DETACH
  commands")
* commit 4f738adba30a ("bpf: create tcp_bpf_ulp allowing BPF to monitor
  socket TX/RX data")
* commit f4364dcfc86d ("media: rc: introduce BPF_PROG_LIRC_MODE2")
* commit d58e468b1112 ("flow_dissector: implements flow dissector BPF
  hook")
