[man pages]: Use italics in headings where needed.
Now (after commit 3a919166) that it's safe to use italics in section and
subsection headings, use them for words we would italicize in running
text.
I continue to dislike and discourage font escapes in man pages. There
is an alternative; .SH and .SS use an input trap if given no arguments.
So rather than
.SH "Calling \f[I]mom\f[]"
we could say
.SH
Calling \c
.I mom
instead. Somehow I don't think this would be more popular. (I also
value the greppability of headings.)
I also shortened or recast some headings and put them in sentence case
instead of title case where necessary.
