man pages: Add note about standard process model
Calling this model the 'standard' model made a lot more sense when it
was the default. Add a small note explaining that it has this name for

(The term 'standard' may have originally been chosen for some other
reason. However, it's hard to find the rationale behind the term from
back in 2005)
