[PATCH v1 0/3] docs: verify/bisect: fine tuning, testing fixes, and using a build host

[Thorsten Leemhuis]

A quick series with various improvements for
Documentation/admin-guide/verify-bugs-and-bisect-regressions.rst.

* The first patch contains various fixes and some fine tuning.

* The second adds a few instructions for later testing of reverts,
  fixes, or newer versions. This was already hinted at; but during some
  early work on Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst to better
  reconcile the two it seemed wise to cover this properly here.

* The third patch briefly outlines how to build kernels on a different
  host; it came into being after a second user within one week asked for
  this. That also allowed the text to briefly cover cross-compilation.

Hi! While at it let me mention one more thing unrelated to the changes
where I'm unsure if the current approach by the text was a wise choice:

* Should the document tell users to avoid mainline during merge windows?

Some input from the community on this would be splendid.

Ciao, Thorsten

P.S.: Not totally sure, but I think this should go into 6.9 as this is
a new document; but I can split this up if the two latter patches better
should go into -next.
