Description

Each detection keyword registers an documentation URL, or should do so. This happens in the per keyword *Register function.

To check:

$ suricata --list-keywords=all
...
base64_decode:
    Description: Decodes base64 encoded data.
    Features: none
    Documentation: https://suricata.readthedocs.io/en/latest/rules/payload-keywords.html#base64-decode
...

For each keyword where an url is missing, add it. For each url that is somehow wrong, fix it.

For each url that does not lead to actually written documentation, open a feature ticket.

should we also change the name, since it doesn't cover the protocol keywords which come after the action? or include them as well?

And we might need to extend the issue https://redmine.openinfosecfoundation.org/issues/635 as well since those are not included in this list as well, any ideas how to proceed with that?

PR: https://github.com/OISF/suricata/pull/3984 This only partially fixes the issue. There are many keywords which do not have docs. Tickets corresponding to all such keywords have been created.
