Give a more consice overview of curl's cipher options and cipher suites.
Removed long lists of ciphers that were directly copied from the SSL
backends' documentation. Instead present the user a more common aproach
acorss the SSL backends, with notes for backends that do not conform
and/or provide alternate means.
Provide a shorter list of cipher suites that is more relevant for modern
usage and should work mostly across all backends, provide a seperate
list with all cipher suites, and provide links to the SSL backends'
documentation for more information.
Also give examples with modern cipher suites.
Add docs/CIPHERS-TLS12.md for TLS 1.2 ciphers.

- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them
- saves us from pointless churn
- git keeps history for us
- the year range is kept in COPYING
checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements

This spellchecker checks markdown files. For this reason this job
converts all man pages in the repository to markdown with pandoc before
the check runs.
The perl script 'cleanspell' filters out details from the man page in
the process, to avoid the spellchecker trying to spellcheck things it
can't. Like curl specific symbols and the SYNOPSIS and EXAMPLE sections
of libcurl man pages.
The spell checker does not check words in sections that are within pre,
strong and em tags.
'spellcheck.words' is a custom word list with additional accepted words.
