mdoc: drop redundant .Pp and .LP calls

They have no effect when coming in pairs, or before .Bl/.Bd


# 208027 13-May-2010 uqs

mdoc: move CAVEATS, BUGS and SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections to the
bottom of the manpages and order them consistently.

GNU groff doesn't care about the ordering, and doesn't even mention
CAVEATS and SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS as common sections and where to put
them.

# 197109 11-Sep-2009 delphij

Make use of the more flexable device hints by adding a new field,
vesa_mode to specify VESA mode, as suggested by jhb@.


# 197085 11-Sep-2009 delphij

Extend the usage of sc(4)'s hint variable 'flag'. Bit 0x80 now means
"set vesa mode" and higher 16bits of the flag would be the desired mode.

One can now set, for instance, hint.sc.0.flags=0x01680180, which means
that the system should set VESA mode 0x168 upon boot.

Update man pages in the section 4 to match the reality in -CURRENT.

- Change lines referring to kernel configuration file:

# 84291 01-Oct-2001 ru

mdoc(7) police: removed hard sentence breaks, minor markup nits.


# 83791 21-Sep-2001 sobomax

Introduce new syscons(4) kernel options:
- SC_CUT_SPACES2TABS - when copying text into the cut buffer convert leading
spaces into the tabs;
- SC_CUT_SEPCHARS="XYZ" - treat supplied characters as possible words
separators when the driver searches for words boundaries when doing cut
operation.

Also unify cut code a bit to decrease amount of duplicated code. This fixes
line cut mode, so that it is no longer pads line with useless spaces.

mdoc(7) police: join split punctuation to macro calls.


# 81251 07-Aug-2001 ru

mdoc(7) police:

Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
entire enclosed block.
