[RFC v2] bpf.2: Use standard types and attributes

[Alejandro Colomar <alx.manpages@gmail.com>]

Some manual pages are already using C99 syntax for integral
types 'uint32_t', but some aren't.  There are some using kernel
syntax '__u32'.  Fix those.

Some pages also document attributes, using GNU syntax
'__attribute__((xxx))'.  Update those to use the shorter and more
portable C11 keywords such as 'alignas()' when possible, and C2x
syntax '[[gnu::xxx]]' elsewhere, which hasn't been standardized
yet, but is already implemented in GCC, and available through
either --std=c2x or any of the --std=gnu... options.

The standard isn't very clear on how to use alignas() or
[[]]-style attributes, so the following link is useful in the case
of 'alignas()' and '[[gnu::aligned()]]':
