Jason St. John e9dd9f9547 man: improve grammar and word formatting in numerous man pages
Use proper grammar, word usage, adjective hyphenation, commas,
capitalization, spelling, etc.

To improve readability, some run-on sentences or sentence fragments were
revised.

[zj: remove the space from 'file name', 'host name', and 'time zone'.]

Jason St. John 1e158d273b man: fix spacing issue in various man pages
Before: libsystemd-daemonpkg-config(1)
After: libsystemd-daemon pkg-config(1)

This fix is more complicated than it should be due to the consecutive
XML elements separated by collapsible whitespace.

Merging the lines and separating the XML elements with an en space or a
non-breaking space is the only solution that results in one, and only
one, space being inserted between them when testing. An em space results
in two spaces being inserted.

Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 92fba83e3a journal-verify: allow unlinked data entries
Sometimes an entry is not successfully written, and we end up with
data items which are "unlinked", not connected to, and not used by any
entry. This will usually happen when we write to write a core dump,
and the initial small data fields are written successfully, but
the huge COREDUMP= field is not written. This situation is hard
to avoid, but the results are mostly harmless. Thus only warn about
unused data items.

Also, be more verbose about why journal files failed verification.
This should help diagnose journal failure modes without resorting
to a hexadecimal editor.

system.journal attached to the bug report).

Thomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen bb31a4ac19 man: typo fixes
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55890

Fixed typos, serial comma, and removed "either" as there were more
than two options. Also did an extra rename of "system-shutdown"
to "systemd-shutdown" that was forgotten in commit
