Subject: [PATCH 45/57] docs: m68k: convert it to ReST file format and add to arch bookset

Convert the m68k kernel-options.txt file to ReST.

The conversion is trivial, as the document is already on a format
close enough to ReST. Just some small adjustments were needed in
order to make it both good for being parsed while keeping it on
a good txt shape.
