Ed Santiago c9c2f644da markdown-preprocess: cross-reference where opts are used 
In each options/foo.md, keep a list of where the option is used.
This will be valuable to anyone making future edits, and to
those reviewing those edits.

This may be a controversial commit, because those crossref lists
are autogenerated as a side effect of the script that reads them.
It definitely violates POLA. And one day, some kind person will
reconcile (e.g.) --label, using it in more man pages, and maybe
forget to git-commit the rewritten file, and CI will fail.

I think this is a tough tradeoff, but worth doing. Without this,
it's much too easy for someone to change an option file in a way
that renders it inapplicable/misleading for some podman commands.

--memory, -m=number[unit]

Memory limit. A unit can be b (bytes), k (kibibytes), m (mebibytes), or g (gibibytes).

Allows the memory available to a container to be constrained. If the host supports swap memory, then the -m memory setting can be larger than physical RAM. If a limit of 0 is specified (not using -m), the container's memory is not limited. The actual limit may be rounded up to a multiple of the operating system's page size (the value would be very large, that's millions of trillions).

This option is not supported on cgroups V1 rootless systems.
