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

# `--referer`
|
|
|
|
Set the referrer URL in the HTTP request. This can also be set with the
|
|
--header flag of course. When used with --location you can append `;auto`" to
|
|
the --referer URL to make curl automatically set the previous URL when it
|
|
follows a Location: header. The `;auto` string can be used alone, even if you
|
|
do not set an initial --referer.
