6736aa793c selftests/bpf: Add general instructions for test execution
Getting a clean BPF selftests run involves ensuring latest trunk LLVM/clang
are used, pahole is recent (>=1.16) and config matches the specified
config file as closely as possible.  Add to bpf_devel_QA.rst and point
tools/testing/selftests/bpf/README.rst to it.

99aaf53e2f tools/bpf: selftests : Explain bpf_iter test failures with llvm 10.0.0
Commit 6879c042e1 ("tools/bpf: selftests: Add bpf_iter selftests")
added self tests for bpf_iter feature. But two subtests
ipv6_route and netlink needs llvm latest 10.x release branch
or trunk due to a bug in llvm BPF backend. This patch added
the file README.rst to document these two failures
so people using llvm 10.0.0 can be aware of them.
