pahole: Describe expected use of 'default' in the man pageupstream-master
the 'default' --btf_features option is useful for testing the latest set
of standard features used for BTF encoding, but will not be used in the
kernel Makefile.btf. It functions as a useful shortcut for testing the
latest set of standard features. Describe this in the manual page.
