docs: consistent manpage SYNOPSIS
Make all libcurl related options use .nf (no fill) for the SYNOPSIS
section - for consistent look. roffit then renders that section using
<pre> (monospace font) in html for the website.

Extended manpage-syntax (test 1173) with a basic check for it.

CURLOPT_[PROXY]_SSL_CIPHER_LIST.3: bold instead of quote
Bold the example ciphers instead of using single quotes, which then also
avoids the problem of how to use single quotes when first in a line.

Also rephrased the pages a little.

opts docs: unify phrasing in NAME header
- avoid writing "set ..." or "enable/disable ..." or "specify ..."
  *All* options for curl_easy_setopt() are about setting or enabling
  things and most of the existing options didn't use that way of
  description.

- start with lowercase letter, unless abbreviation. For consistency.

- Some additional touch-ups

terminology: call them null-terminated strings
Updated terminology in docs, comments and phrases to refer to C strings
as "null-terminated". Done to unify with how most other C oriented docs
refer of them and what users in general seem to prefer (based on a
single highly unscientific poll on twitter).

Reported by the new script 'scripts/copyright.pl'. The script has a
