fix up various .Nm abuses:
...
- keep the case consistent between the actual name and what's referenced.
e.g, if it's `foo', don't use '.Nm Foo' at the start of a sentence.
- remove unnecessary `.Nm foo' after the first occurrence (except for
using `.Nm ""' if there's stuff following, or for the 2nd and so on
occurrences in a SYNOPSIS
- use Sx, Ic, Li, Em, Sq, and Xr as appropriate

Clean up this mess a lot. I believe we still have the following
...
issues (at least):
1) sbrk is defined as returning char *, which violates XPG
2) I'm not clear on what happens if you try to sbrk() on a negative
incr that is less than the page size. I'm guessing "nothing", but we
should document this behavior.
3) XPG says some interesting things about whether new pages are
guaranteed zeroed. We say nothing about this. We should document our
behavior.
4) It isn't clear if *we* guarantee that malloc and sbrk can be mixed
in our API (I've documented that it isn't universally portable.)
We really should clean these up, too.
