As the pointer returned by the tracefs_options_get_*() point to the
instance field, it must not be freed or modified by the caller. Have the
return value of the mask be a constant, and update the documentation to
reflect this.
Also fixed the documentation about supported options. If an option is
supported in the top level instance, it may *not* be supported in a
created instance. Currently all options supported in the created instance
are also supported at the top level, but there's no guarantee that will be
the case in the future. All created instances (mkdir in instances
directory) have the same supported options.

As tracefs_option_is_set() was renamed to tracefs_option_mask_is_set() and
is tightly coupled with the tracefs_option_get_*() functions, remove its
man page and document it along with the other tracefs_option_*()
functions.

-DESCRIPTION
------------
-This set of APIs can be used to manipulate a bitmask with option IDs.
-
-The _tracefs_option_set()_ function sets the bit, corresponding to the option with _id_ in the
-_options_ bitmask.
-
-The _tracefs_option_clear()_ function clears the bit, corresponding to the option with _id_ in the
-_options_ bitmask.
-
-The _tracefs_option_is_set()_ function checks if the bit, corresponding to the option with _id_ is
-set in the _options_ bitmask.
-
-RETURN VALUE
-------------
-The _tracefs_option_is_set()_ function returns true if the bit is set, false otherwise.
