Fix macro use, sort.

Rework the description of process priorities in renice(8).

It is inherently confusing, thanks to historical practice and
standards, so let's be very explicit.

Rearrange the description of the renice arguments and options.

Don't refer to "who" parameters that aren't defined anywhere, make it
clear how the options are actually interpreted (since it's not and
can't be getopt-style), and also document the behavior when a named
collection of processes doesn't start out with uniform priority.

The dangling "who" parameters issue seems to date back to 4.4.

Prompted by Ottavio Caruso.

Third (and last) commit. See http://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2009/05/13/msg221222.html

Fix markup.

Move UCB-licensed code from 4-clause to 3-clause licence.

Patches provided by Joel Baker in PR 22365, verified by myself.

.Nm does not need a dummy argument ("") before punctuation or
for correct formatting of the SYNOPSIS any longer.

Sort sections.

Whitespace cleanup.

Note that nice +20 only guarantees exclusion w.r.t. the base priority,
and not w.r.t. intermediate nice-levels. Correct english and formatting.

More and more .Os cleanups.  .Os is defined in the tmac.doc-common file,
so we shouldn't override it with versions in the manpages.  Many more to
come.

Overhaul...
- check numeric arguments properly.
- fix usage.
- add -n increment option.

WARNSify, fix .Nm usage, deprecate register, use warn

Add reference to nice(1).
