Give a hint to the reader as to what the "whiteout" actually means.

Fix markup, add the EXIT STATUS section.

Correct a security issue introduced in previous commit:
instead of removing the file and issue a warning about
the removal, do not do any operation at all in case -P
is specified when the dinode has hard links.

With -f and -P specified together, we assume that the
user wants rm to overwrite the contents of the file
and remove it (destroy the contents of file but leave
its hard links as is).

The reason of doing it this way is that, in case where
a hard link is created by a malicious user (currently
this is permitted even if the user has no access to the
file). Losing the link can potentially mean that the
actual owner would lose control completely to the user
who wants to obtain access in a future day.

Discussed with: Peter Jermey

Be more reasonable when overwrite mode is specified while there
is hard links. Overwritting when links > 1 would cause data
loss, which is usually undesired.

-mdoc sweep.

Give .Dd a tummy rub, forgotten on my last commit.

Handle the case where the -P flag is specified for a read-only file
earlier, and more gracefully. Previously, this combination would be
ignored early in the code where permissions are tested and fail later
with a very unhelpful "permission denied" error.

Instead, test for this flag in the same block that generates the
"override?" messages for read-only files, but instead of trying
to guess what the user has in mind, generate an error and exit.

Update the man page to reflect this new behavior.

Add -I, an option that asks for confirmation once if recursively
removing directories or if more than 3 files are listed in the
command line.

This feature is intended to provide a safe net but not being too
annoying like having "rm -i" for every deleting operations, and
is generally good for both newbies and power users, preventing
them from being so easily run into ``rm -rf /'', ``rm -rf *''
and so forth.
