Jeff Lucovsky d2e3bf1d34 doc: document xor transform variable key and offset syntax
Add user-facing documentation for the xor transform's 'extract <nbytes>
<offset>' syntax and offset parameter in rules/transforms.rst.

Add a devguide section (devguide/extending/detect/transforms.rst)
covering the detection pipeline execution order, how transforms run
before detection-time keywords, and how xor reads key bytes directly
from the raw buffer at a specified position and width. Explains how
the engine deduplicates inspection buffers for rules with variable
keys at different buffer positions.
