We had a number of references, mostly in docs, to the word master that
can now be changed to main. This PR does that and makes the project a
bit more inclusive.
[NO NEW TESTS NEEDED]

Followup to #14906, in which a nonexistent option was found
in a man page. The xref script was designed to catch that,
but I was too lax in my parsing: the option was documented
using wrong syntax, and the script didn't catch it.
Solution: do not allow *any* unrecognized cruft in the
option description lines. And fix all improperly-written
entries to conform to the rule:
**--option**=*value(s)*
Two asterisks around option, which must have two dashes. One
asterisk around value(s).
This is going to cause headaches for some people adding new
options, but I don't think I can fix that: there are many
factors that make an unparseable line. Adding 'hint' code
would make the script even more complex than it is. I have
to assume that our contributors are smart enough to look
at surrounding context and figure out the right way to
specify options.

I looked at the man pages and found that while they are consistent in their basic concept, many things concerning formatting are not.
For example, it is not consistent that options are behind an H4 header.
The biggest criticism, however, is how commands and options are handled when referencing them in a text.
There is no clear structure between the man pages regarding this. Sometimes backticks are used and sometimes they are written in italic.
Also, the formatting regarding the appearance of the commands is not consistent either.
I would like to propose a uniform formatting and, if accepted, apply it to all man pages.
Uniformity is very important to me and it should be clear to the user when reading several man pages what exactly their content and references are about.
