Mechanically kill hard sentence breaks.

Changed EINVAL constant reference from UIO_MAXIOV to IOV_MAX.
The former is a kernel-only visible constant, the latter the
POSIX-specified userland constant defined by including limits.h.

Fix struct iovec documentation to match reality.

Remove the internal implementation details of wrapping syscalls,
which do not match the reality anyway.

mdoc(7) police: Use the new .In macro for #include statements.

Remove whitespace at EOL.

mdoc(7) police: removed HISTORY info from the .Os call.

mdoc(7) police: remove extraneous .Pp before and/or after .Sh.

Document the EINTR error.

Replace .Va, .Ar and .Nm with .Fa or .Va where necessary, examples:
``.Ar errno'' -> ``.Va errno''
``.Nm ops'' -> ``.Fa ops''
``.Va fd'' -> ``.Fa fd''

Introduce ".Lb" macro to libc manpages.

More libraries manpages updates following.

Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.

Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

.\" $Id$
.\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.
