docs: add SVG version of Linux logo
In the Rust for Linux patch series, Jonathan Corbet requested that we avoid binary assets (logo and favicons for the generated documentation), possibly by recreating the logo in SVG format. However, it turns out there is no SVG version of the Linux logo in the kernel tree yet, only a GIF one from the pre-v2.0.0 days. Thus this commit fixes that, which then we can use in the Rust documentation in one way or another. This is a vector re-illustration by Garrett LeSage of the original logo by Larry Ewing (plus cleanups by IFo Hancroft). Garrett gave me (privately) his permission to use it for this purpose. The acknowledgement requirement has been made mandatory here to match the wording of the existing one.

The SVG version was re-illustrated in vector by Garrett LeSage and
