Docs/mm/damon/maintainer-profile: remove damon-tests/perf suggestion

The DAMON performance tests [1] use PARSEC 3.0 as its major test
workloads. But the official web site for PARSEC 3.0 has gone, so there is
no easy way to get the benchmark. Mainly due to the fact, DAMON
performance tests are difficult to run, and effectively broken. Do not
request running it for now. Instead, suggest running any benchmarks or
real world workloads that make sense for performance changes.

Docs/mm/damon/design: link repology instead of Fedora package

The document is introducing Fedora as one way to get DAMON user-space tool
(damo) from OS-providing packaging system. Linux distros more than Fedora
are providing damo with their packaging systems, though. Replace the
Fedora part with the repology.org page that shows damo packaging status
for multiple Linux distros.

Docs/mm/damon/index: simplify the intro

Patch series "Docs/mm/damon: update intro, modules, maintainer profile,
and misc".

Update DAMON documentations for wordsmithing, clarifications, and
miscellaneous outdated things with eight patches. Patch 1 simplifies the
brief introduction of DAMON. Patch 2 updates DAMON user-space tool
packaged distros information on design doc to include not only Fedora, but
refer to repology. Three following patches update design and usage
documents for clarifying DAMON sample modules purposes (patch 3), and
outdated information about usages of DAMON modules (patches 4 and 5).
Final three patches update usage and maintainer-profile for sysfs
refresh_ms feature behavior (patch 6), synchronize DAMON MAINTAINERS
section name (patch 7), and broken damon-tests performance tests (patch
8).


This patch (of 8):

The intro is a bit verbose and redundant. Simplify it by replacing
details with more links to the design docs, and refining the design points
list.

Update design document for newly added DAMOS_QUOTA_[IN]ACTIVE_MEM_BP

comment, and the usage document points to the design document which uses
keywords same to that for sysfs inputs. Hence updating only design
