'NULL' is a null pointer _constant_. A 'null pointer' is a broader
concept. 'NULL pointer' is not a thing. See the link below.

We're trying to "standardize" on a paragraphing macro from the three
equivalent ones (P, PP, LP). We (somewhat arbitrarily) agreed on P.
Scripted change:
$ find man* -type f | xargs sed -i '/\.PP/s/PP/P/'
$ find man* -type f | xargs sed -i '/\.LP/s/LP/P/'

- Add a new HISTORY section that covers the history of an API, both
regarding implementations and regarding old standards. This was
previously covered in VERSIONS, and in some cases in STANDARDS.
- Repurpose VERSIONS to cover differing implementations in _current_
systems.
- STANDARDS is reduced to only cover current versions of standards.
That basically means only C11 (C99 has been superseeded by C11; C17
is just a bugfix of C11, so not really a new version), and
POSIX.1-2008 (*-2001 was superseeded by *-2008; *-2017 was just a
bugfix for *-2008). The section also mentions for example 'Linux',
'GNU' or 'BSD' when a non-standard API is Linux- or GNU-only or if
it's (de-facto) standard in the BSDs.
- In some cases content that should go into one of these sections was
in NOTES. Move it from there to where it corresponds.
- In the SYNOPSIS, I added [[deprecated]] in some functions that I
found are deprecated by the relevant standards.
- A few other related changes...

This improves readability in the source code, since it delimits where
the escape sequence ends.

There are different kinds of lists:
Tagged paragraphs
These are fixed in a separate commit (the previous one).
They are used for a list of tags and their descriptions.
An example is this commit message itself.
Ordered lists
Elements are preceeded by a number in parentheses.
These represent a set of steps that have an order.
When there are substeps, they will be numbered like (4.2).
Positional lists
Elements are preceeded by a number in square brackets
(index). These represent fields in a set. The index will
start at:
0 fields of a C data structure, to be consistent
with arrays.
1 fields of a file, to be consistent with tools like
cut(1).
Alternatives list
Elements are preceeded by a letter in parentheses.
These represent a set of (normally) exclusive
alternatives.
Bullet lists
Elements are preceeded by bullet symbols. Anything that
doesn't fit elsewhere usually is covered by this type of
list.
Notes
Not really a list, but the syntax is identical to
"positional lists".
There should always be 2 spaces between the list symbol and the
elements. This doesn't apply to "tagged paragraphs", which use
the default indentation rules.

Replace the date by a placeholder (date) in the repo, as we're
doing with the version (unreleased). It will be filled when the
tarball is generated with 'make dist' (or equivalent) with the
date of the most recent git commit that modifies the page (as was
done previously by update_timestamps.sh, which has been removed).
Scripted change (mostly):
$ find man* -type f \
| xargs sed -Ei '/^\.TH /s/.TH +([^ ]+ +[^ ]+) +[^ ]+ +(.*)/.TH \1 (date) \2/'

The root of the repository is becoming a bit overpopulated and
unorganized, due to the recent addition of more mandirs, and more
informative and configuration files too. Let's create a specific
mandir <man/> that contains the mandirs <man[1-8]*>.

Now that we have the LIBRARY section, and a 4th argument that
already tells that it's a page from the Linux man-pages project,
the 5th argument isn't telling any information that the default
value wouldn't. So let's just remove it.

STANDARDS seems to be much more extended than CONFORMING TO. For
consistency across the whole manual pages corpus, let's try to
unify, by following the most commonly used section name.

In the RETURN VALUE sections, a number of different wordings
are used in to describe the fact that 'errno' is set on error.
There's no reason for the difference in wordings, since the same
thing is being described in each case. Switch to a standard
wording that is the same as FreeBSD and similar to the wording
used in POSIX.1.
In this change, "to indicate the cause of the error"
is changed to "to indicate the error".

To easily distinguish documentation about glibc wrappers from
documentation about kernel syscalls, let's have a normalized
'Note' in the SYNOPSIS, and a further explanation in the page body
(NOTES in most of them), as already happened in many (but not all)
of the manual pages for syscalls without a wrapper. Furthermore,
let's normalize the messages, following membarrier.2 (because it's
already quite extended), so that it's easy to use grep to find
those pages.
To find these pages, we used:
$ grep -rn wrapper man? | sort -V
and
$ grep -rni support.*glibc | sort -V
delete_module.2, init_module.2: glibc 2.23 is no longer
maintained, so we changed the notes about wrappers, to say that
there are no glibc wrappers for these system calls; see NOTES.
We didn't fix some obsolete pages such as create_module.2.
