docs: stable-kernel-rules: remove code-labels tags and a indention level

Browse Source 
Remove the 'code-block:: none' labels and switch to the shorter '::' to
reduce noise.

Remove a unneeded level of indentation, as that reduces the chance that
readers have to scroll sideways in some of the code blocks.

No text changes. Rendered html output looks like before, except for the
different level of indentation.

Send the patch, after verifying that it follows the above rules, to
stable@vger.kernel.org and mention the kernel versions you wish it to be applied
to. When doing so, you must note the upstream commit ID in the changelog of your
