docs: stable-kernel-rules: move text around to improve flow

Move the short description about when to use which of the submission
options to the top of the section, as it currently sits somewhat odd in
the middle between option 3 and examples of option 1.

Also move the examples of Option 1 into the section describing it (which
in the diff looks like option 2 and 3 are moving down).

No text changes, just moving it around.

 There are three options to submit a change to -stable trees:
 
+:ref:`option_1` is **strongly** preferred, is the easiest and most common.
+:ref:`option_2` and :ref:`option_3` are more useful if the patch isn't deemed
+worthy at the time it is applied to a public git tree (for instance, because
+it deserves more regression testing first).  :ref:`option_3` is especially
+useful if the original upstream patch needs to be backported (for example
