doc: sctp: Merge and clean up rst files
The SCTP sections were ending up at the top-level table of contents under the security section when they should have be sections with the SCTP chapters. In addition to correcting the section and subsection headings, this merges the SCTP documents into a single file to organize the chapters more clearly, internally linkifies them, and adds the missing SPDX header.

+
+The `SCTP LSM Support`_ chapter above describes the following SCTP security
+hooks with the SELinux specifics expanded below::

+ @skb - pointer to skbuff of association packet.
+
+The security module performs the following operations:
+ IF this is the first association on ``@ep->base.sk``, then set the peer
+ sid to that in ``@skb``. This will ensure there is only one peer sid
+ assigned to ``@ep->base.sk`` that may support multiple associations.
+
+ ELSE validate the ``@ep->base.sk peer_sid`` against the ``@skb peer sid``
+ to determine whether the association should be allowed or denied.
+
+ Set the sctp ``@ep sid`` to socket's sid (from ``ep->base.sk``) with
+ MLS portion taken from ``@skb peer sid``. This will be used by SCTP
+ TCP style sockets and peeled off connections as they cause a new socket
+ to be generated.
+
+ If IP security options are configured (CIPSO/CALIPSO), then the ip

+``@ep peer sid`` respectively.

+Policy Statements
+-----------------
+The following class and permissions to support SCTP are available within the
+kernel::
+
+ class sctp_socket inherits socket { node_bind }
+
+whenever the following policy capability is enabled::
+
+ policycap extended_socket_class;
+
+SELinux SCTP support adds the ``name_connect`` permission for connecting
+to a specific port type and the ``association`` permission that is explained
+in the section below.
+
+If userspace tools have been updated, SCTP will support the ``portcon``
+statement as shown in the following example::
+
+ portcon sctp 1024-1036 system_u:object_r:sctp_ports_t:s0
+
+
+SCTP Peer Labeling
+------------------
+An SCTP socket will only have one peer label assigned to it. This will be
+assigned during the establishment of the first association. Any further
+associations on this socket will have their packet peer label compared to
+the sockets peer label, and only if they are different will the
+``association`` permission be validated. This is validated by checking the
+socket peer sid against the received packets peer sid to determine whether
+the association should be allowed or denied.
+
+NOTES:
+ 1) If peer labeling is not enabled, then the peer context will always be
+ ``SECINITSID_UNLABELED`` (``unlabeled_t`` in Reference Policy).
+
+ 2) As SCTP can support more than one transport address per endpoint
+ (multi-homing) on a single socket, it is possible to configure policy
+ and NetLabel to provide different peer labels for each of these. As the
+ socket peer label is determined by the first associations transport
+ address, it is recommended that all peer labels are consistent.
+
+ 3) **getpeercon**\(3) may be used by userspace to retrieve the sockets peer
+ context.
+
+ 4) While not SCTP specific, be aware when using NetLabel that if a label
+ is assigned to a specific interface, and that interface 'goes down',
+ then the NetLabel service will remove the entry. Therefore ensure that
+ the network startup scripts call **netlabelctl**\(8) to set the required
+ label (see **netlabel-config**\(8) helper script for details).
+
+ 5) The NetLabel SCTP peer labeling rules apply as discussed in the following
+ set of posts tagged "netlabel" at: http://www.paul-moore.com/blog/t.
+
+ 6) CIPSO is only supported for IPv4 addressing: ``socket(AF_INET, ...)``
+ CALIPSO is only supported for IPv6 addressing: ``socket(AF_INET6, ...)``
+
+ Note the following when testing CIPSO/CALIPSO:
+ a) CIPSO will send an ICMP packet if an SCTP packet cannot be
+ delivered because of an invalid label.
+ b) CALIPSO does not send an ICMP packet, just silently discards it.
+
+ 7) IPSEC is not supported as RFC 3554 - sctp/ipsec support has not been
+ implemented in userspace (**racoon**\(8) or **ipsec_pluto**\(8)),
+ although the kernel supports SCTP/IPSEC.
