curl.1: provide examples for each option
The file format for each option now features a "Example:" header that
can provide one or more examples that get rendered appropriately in the
output. All options MUST have at least one example or gen.pl complains
at build-time.

This fix also does a few other minor format and consistency cleanups.

Specify the User-Agent string to send to the HTTP server. To encode blanks in
the string, surround the string with single quote marks. This header can also
be set with the --header or the --proxy-header options.
If you give an empty argument to --user-agent (""), it will remove the header
completely from the request. If you prefer a blank header, you can set it to a
single space (" ").
If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
