After Gmail called out the typo I fixed on
532d89a866, I've decided to paste the
whole man page into Google docs and check what other issues it would
spot.
I know, it sounds silly, but I've just spent the last hour and a half
going over each one of them and fixing everything which was a true
finding and non-controversial.
Closes#17480
Use imperative mood consistently for the first sentence describing an
option.
"Set this" instead "tell curl to set" or "this sets..."
Plus some extra cleanups and rephrasing.
Closes#13106
All CR and LF bytes should be stripped, as documented, and all other
bytes are inluded in the data. Starting now, it also excludes null bytes
as they would otherwise also cut the data short.

Fixes#13063Closes#13064
- switch all invidual files documenting command line options into .md,
as the documentation is now markdown-looking.
- made the parser treat 4-space indents as quotes
- switch to building the curl.1 manpage using the "mainpage.idx" file,
which lists the files to include to generate it, instead of using the
previous page-footer/headers. Also, those files are now also .md
ones, using the same format. I gave them underscore prefixes to make
them sort separately:
_NAME.md, _SYNOPSIS.md, _DESCRIPTION.md, _URL.md, _GLOBBING.md,
_VARIABLES.md, _OUTPUT.md, _PROTOCOLS.md, _PROGRESS.md, _VERSION.md,
_OPTIONS.md, _FILES.md, _ENVIRONMENT.md, _PROXYPREFIX.md,
_EXITCODES.md, _BUGS.md, _AUTHORS.md, _WWW.md, _SEEALSO.md
- updated test cases accordingly
Closes#12751
