[PATCH man v3 2/2] landlock.7: Add IPC scoping documentation in line with kernel side

["Günther Noack" <gnoack@google.com>]

* Move over documentation for ABI version 6 (IPC scoping features)
* Clarify terminology
* Stop mixing the unix(7) and signal(7) aspects in the explanation.

With this ABI version, Landlock can restrict outgoing interactions with
higher-privileged Landlock domains through Abstract Unix Domain sockets and
signals.

Terminology:

* The *IPC Scope* of a Landlock domain is that Landlock domain and its
  nested domains.

* An *operation* (e.g., signaling, connecting to abstract UDS) is said to
  be *scoped within a domain* when the flag for that operation was set at
  ruleset creation time.  This means that for the purpose of this
  operation, only processes within the domain's IPC scope are reachable.

+.SS IPC scoping
+Similar to the implicit

+we may want to further restrict interactions between sandboxes.
+Therefore, at ruleset creation time,
