tools: bpf: build and install man page for eBPF helpers from bpftool/
Provide a new Makefile.helpers in tools/bpf, in order to build and install the man page for eBPF helpers. This Makefile is also included in the one used to build bpftool documentation, so that it can be called either on its own (cd tools/bpf && make -f Makefile.helpers) or from bpftool directory (cd tools/bpf/bpftool && make doc, or cd tools/bpf/bpftool/Documentation && make helpers). Makefile.helpers is not added directly to bpftool to avoid changing its Makefile too much (helpers are not 100% directly related with bpftool). But the possibility to build the page from bpftool directory makes us able to package the helpers man page with bpftool, and to install it along with bpftool documentation, so that the doc for helpers becomes easily available to developers through the "man" program.
