3631c24861 docs: better explain multi-part byte range behavior
- Better explain that if the requested range (--range or CURLOPT_RANGE)
  contains multiple ranges then the response contains meta information
  in addition to the requested bytes.

Prior to this change it was noted that a multiple part response was
returned as-is but not what that meant. In particular, meta information
is returned in addition to the requested bytes and that may have been
unexpected.

curl: --continue-at is mutually exclusive with --range
Allowing both just creates a transfer with behaviors no user can
properly anticipate so better just deny the combo.

GHA: silence proselint warnings and an error
Fix new issues found by `proselint`.

Also:
- silence this technical warning:
  ```
  :0: DeprecationWarning: /home/runner/.proselintrc was found instead of a JSON file. Rename to /home/runner/.proselintrc.json.
  ```
- fix an input filename.
  `proselints` fails now if an input file is missing.

docs/cmdline: change to .md for cmdline docs
- 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
