docs: submitting-patches: Fix section structure around DCO
Commit 5903019b2a5e ("Documentation/SubmittingPatches: convert it to
ReST markup") made "DCO 1.1" a subsection under the section "Sign your
work - ...". However, the DCO text is meant to be referenced in the
section.
Furthermore, in HTML and PDF docs, paragraphs following the DCO:
then you just add a line saying:
Signed-off-by: [...]
[...]
as it was propagated to the maintainers and ultimately to Linus, with
the first SoB entry signalling primary authorship of a single author.
appear to belong to the DCO, rather than to "Sign your work - ..."
where it should.
In reST (and other documentation tools), once you start a subsection
under a section, there is no way to go back to the section.
Fix the section structure by making the DCO a literal block, with
indent changes made in commit 5903019b2a5e reverted.
While at it, fix the same issue at "Reviewer's statement of
oversight".
