Jan Engelhardt 7964042405 man: wording and grammar updates
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various
issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous
comma placement fixes…

Highligts in this particular commit:
- the "unsigned" type qualifier is completed to form a full type
  "unsigned int"
- alphabetic -> lexicographic (that way we automatically define how
  numbers get sorted)

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 479fe882ae man: use <literal> not <filename> for suffixes
Especially sentences like "filename ends in .suffix" are easier to
parse if the suffix is surrounded by quotes. In sentences like
"requires a .service unit", where the suffix is used as a class
designation, there is no need to use quotes.

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 909f413d3c man: always supply quotes around literals
When manpages are displayed on a terminal, <literal>s are indistinguishable
from surrounding text. Add quotes everywhere, remove duplicate quotes,
and tweak a few lists for consistent formatting.

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 845c53246f man: add various filenames to the index
Everything which is an absolute filename marked with <filename></filename>
lands in the index, unless noindex= attribute is present. Should make
it easier for people to find stuff when they are looking at a file on
disk.

Various formatting errors in manpages are fixed, kernel-install(1) is
restored to formatting sanity.

Lennart Poettering 34511ca7b1 man: reword man page titles
Make sure the man page titles are similar in style and capitalization so
that our man page index looks pretty.

Lennart Poettering 5430f7f2bc relicense to LGPLv2.1 (with exceptions)
We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.

Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.

The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.

The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
