docs: Update kernel issue reporting guidance

All four AskingQuestions copies direct users to the removed top-level
Linux REPORTING-BUGS file. They also present reports built around Linux
2.6, procfs and obsolete module names without an age marker.

Point each copy at
Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst, the current kernel
reporting guide. Keep the old reports as examples of useful diagnostic
detail, but label them historical so their commands are not reused as
SCST setup instructions.
