Christophe CURIS c743c4b77b doc: updated man pages for many tools
This patch perform simple fixes to the man pages and tool help page:
 - minor style updates, to get cleaner pages
 - option re-ordering, to have them in alphabetic order (easier to search for)
 - consistency updates for descriptions and number of dash
 - spell-checking

The biggest changes are:
 - wmagnify: the option 'vdisplay' was not documented at all;

 - getstyle: the list of attributes that are taken for the Style are now
described in their own section to clarify the page;

 - setstyle: the help page left thinking that the file argument was
optional, which is not the case;

 - wdread: as the Exit Code may be useful, and it is not unusable, it is
now documented;

 - wmgenmenu: added information about how the content of the menu is
generated;

 - wmsetbg: added a section about dithering/best-match because as nowadays
most screens are in True Color, the reason for the option may not be clear.
