The general changelog rules for the tip tree refers to "Describe your
changes" section of submitting patches guide. However, the internal link
reference targets to non-existent "submittingpatches" label, which
brings reader to the top of the linked doc.
Correct the target. No changes to submitting-patches.rst since the
required label is already there.

The kernel has a wide variety of debugging options to help catch
and squash bugs. However, new debugging is added all the time and
the existing options can be hard to find.
Add a Kconfig fragment with the debugging options which tip
maintainers expect to be used to test contributions.
This should make it easier for contributors to test their code and
find issues before submission.

Add a document to the subsystem/maintainer handbook section, which explains
what the tip tree is, how it operates and what rules and expectations it
has.
[ bp:
- Add a SPDX identifier, work in most comments from the thread.
- 9bf19b78a2 ("Documentation/submitting-patches: Document the SoB
chain") is also in the main Documentation but I'm leaving the
paragraph here because it has the proper structure - text talks about
SoBs and referencing somewhere else would interrupt the flow.
- Move backtraces in changelogs to main submitting-patches.rst.
- "Patch version information" is explained to a great detail in
submitting-patches.rst too.
- Hyperlink resend reminders section.
