From: Daniel Gröber <redacted>

Add user and reviewer documentation for the ipxlat virtual netdevice in
Documentation/networking/ipxlat.rst.

The document describes the datapath model, stateless IPv4/IPv6 address
translation rules, ICMP handling, control-plane configuration, and test
topology assumptions. It also records the intended runtime configuration
contract and current behavior limits so deployment expectations are
clear.

You need to add this new file to Documentation/networking/index.rst or
it won't be included in the build (and you'll get a warning).

Thanks,
