docs: stable-kernel-rules: create special tag to flag 'no backporting'

Document a new variant of the stable tag developers can use to make the
stable team's tools ignore a change[1].

That way developers can use 'Fixes:' tags without fearing the changes
might be backported in semi-automatic fashion. Such concerns are the
reason why some developers deliberately omit the 'Fixes:' tag in
changes[2] -- which somewhat undermines the reason for the existence of
that tag and might be unwise in the long term[3].

docs: stable-kernel-rules: remove code-labels tags and a indention level

Remove the 'code-block:: none' labels and switch to the shorter '::' to
reduce noise.

Remove a unneeded level of indentation, as that reduces the chance that
readers have to scroll sideways in some of the code blocks.

No text changes. Rendered html output looks like before, except for the
different level of indentation.

Fine-tuning:

* s/Linus' tree/Linux mainline/, as mainline is the term used elsewhere
in the document.

* Provide a better example for the 'delayed backporting' case that uses
a fixed rather than a relative reference point, which makes it easier
to handle for the stable team.
