Adding Linux quiz questions

[jdwilkin4]

developerquiz.org currently has over 600 quiz questions. We are looking to expand on the Linux questions and we encourage other developers to add their quiz questions to the site.

You can find the complete list of questions below. https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/Developer_Quiz_Site/blob/main/src/data/linux-quiz.ts

You can add your own questions to the top of that file. Please first check to make sure your question doesn't already exist in the file before creating a PR.

Here is an example format for the questions.

  {
    Question: "In Linux, what is a maximum length for a filename?",
    Answer: "255 Bytes",
    Distractor1: "225 Bytes",
    Distractor2: "235 Bytes",
    Distractor3: "295 Bytes",
    Explanation:
      "The maximum length for a file name is 255 bytes. The maximum combined length of both the file name and path name is 4096 bytes.",
    Link: "https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/spectrum-protect/8.1.9?topic=parameters-file-specification-syntax",
  },

For the link field, please make sure to use a freeCodeCamp article, freeCodeCamp YouTube video or official documentation. If you choose to reference a video, please make sure to include the timestamp for the topic covered.
