Quentin Monnet b46b0ef69d bpftool: Fix indent in option lists in the documentation
commit 986dec18bb upstream.

Mixed indentation levels in the lists of options in bpftool's
documentation produces some unexpected results. For the "bpftool" man
page, it prints a warning:

    $ make -C bpftool.8
      GEN     bpftool.8
    <stdin>:26: (ERROR/3) Unexpected indentation.

For other pages, there is no warning, but it results in a line break
appearing in the option lists in the generated man pages.

RST paragraphs should have a uniform indentation level. Let's fix it.

Fixes: c07ba629df ("tools: bpftool: Update and synchronise option list in doc and help msg")
Fixes: 8cc8c6357c ("tools: bpftool: Document and add bash completion for -L, -B options")

DESCRIPTION
===========
*bpftool* allows for inspection and simple modification of BPF objects
on the system.
Note that format of the output of all tools is not guaranteed to be
stable and should not be depended upon.
OPTIONS
=======
.. include:: common_options.rst
-m, --mapcompat
Allow loading maps with unknown map definitions.
-n, --nomount
Do not automatically attempt to mount any virtual file system
(such as tracefs or BPF virtual file system) when necessary.
