136799e52c docs: sysctl: Add documentation for /proc/sys/xen/
Add documentation for the Xen hypervisor sysctl controls in
/proc/sys/xen/balloon/.

Documents the hotplug_unpopulated tunable (available when
CONFIG_XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is enabled) which controls
whether unpopulated memory regions are automatically hotplugged
when the Xen balloon driver needs to reclaim memory.

The documentation is based on source code analysis of
drivers/xen/balloon.c.

6801cc4936 docs: sysctl: add documentation for crypto and debug
Add documentation for the /proc/sys/crypto and /proc/sys/debug
directories in the admin-guide. This includes tunables for FIPS
mode (fips_enabled, fips_name, fips_version), exception-trace,
and kprobes-optimization.

The documentation is based on source code analysis and addresses
stylistic feedback to keep it direct and concise.

5704324702 docs: admin-guide: move sysctl directory to it
The stuff under sysctl describes /sys interface from userspace
point of view. So, add it to the admin-guide and remove the
:orphan: from its index file.
