Benno Schulenberg 62246430f3 docs: also uniformize headers and footers of troff-formatted man pages
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.

Benno Schulenberg 232dc924c4 docs: uniformize the header and footer lines in man pages
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.
