Subject: libbpf: Add documentation for bpf_map batch operations
Patch-mainline: v5.17-rc1
Git-commit: e59618f0f46fa6cf86d5b82380e0f453756b282b
References: jsc#PED-1368

This adds documention for:

- bpf_map_delete_batch()
- bpf_map_lookup_batch()
- bpf_map_lookup_and_delete_batch()
- bpf_map_update_batch()

This also updates the public API for the `keys` parameter
of `bpf_map_delete_batch()`, and both the
`keys` and `values` parameters of `bpf_map_update_batch()`
to be constants.
