Summary

This differential adds a basic manual page for tcp_bbr.

I documentated the sysctls via the documentation they provide via sysctl -ad. The wording may improved by someone with a more in-depth knowledge about the BBR implementation.

The same applies for the algorithm description.

Test Plan

mandoc output review and mandoc -Tlint and igor checks.

Looks good to me, approved! Thanks for writing the man page.

@rrs and @tuexen could you have a look at this man page from the technical perspective?
