Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/usage: remove redundant information
DAMON usage document mentions DAMON user space tool and programming interface twice. This commit integrates those and remove unnecessary part.

DAMON provides below three interfaces for different users.
- *DAMON user space tool.*
- This is for privileged people such as system administrators who want a
- just-working human-friendly interface. Using this, users can use the DAMON’s
- major features in a human-friendly way. It may not be highly tuned for
- special cases, though. It supports both virtual and physical address spaces
- monitoring.

+ <https://github.com/awslabs/damo/blob/next/USAGE.md>`_.
- *debugfs interface.*
- This is for privileged user space programmers who want more optimized use of
- DAMON. Using this, users can use DAMON’s major features by reading
- from and writing to special debugfs files. Therefore, you can write and use
- your personalized DAMON debugfs wrapper programs that reads/writes the
- debugfs files instead of you. The DAMON user space tool is also a reference
- implementation of such programs. It supports both virtual and physical
- address spaces monitoring.

- *Kernel Space Programming Interface.*

- feature of DAMON most flexibly and efficiently by writing kernel space
- DAMON application programs for you. You can even extend DAMON for various
- address spaces.

-Nevertheless, you could write your own user space tool using the debugfs
