There is value in ensuring that manual page sections use consistently
named sections, as far as possible, and also that sections have a
consistent order within manual pages. This is one of a series of patches
to place manual page sections in a consistent order.
In this patch, we ensure that the AUTHORS, COPYRIGHT, SEE ALSO, and
AVAILABILITY sections are always placed at the end of the page.
Testing that no gross editing mistake (causing accidental loss or addition
of text) was performed as follows:
$ cat $(grep '\.SH' -l $(find . -name '*.[1-9]') |sort) | sort > a
[Apply patch]
$ cat $(grep '\.SH' -l $(find . -name '*.[1-9]') |sort) | sort > b
$ diff a b
$ echo $?

Unfortunately methods I used to find and fix were based on quite manual
process that cannot be easily repeated so I do not see how this fix could be
turned into a tools/checkmans.sh addition. Well, lets hope doing this
manually twice every decade is good enough.

Highlight the program name, use proper lowercase, remove
unneeded commas and articles, and add helpful hyphenation.

Add two spaces as the required third argument of the date line to make
the specified date get used instead of today's date. Incorporate the
section number into the page title, then use an empty section number,
so that specifying an explicit section/volume name will work.

Use dates without the day, use the full month name, put "util-linux" in
the lower left corner, and "User Commands" or "System Administration"
at the top center.
Also improve here and there the one-line program description.
