managen: wordwrap long example lines in ASCII output

The entire ASCII version of the manpage word wraps at a fixed column,
while example command lines can easily go wider than so.

managen: wordwrap long example lines in ASCII output

The entire ASCII version of the manpage word wraps at a fixed column,
while example command lines can easily go wider than so.

This change now makes manage work on wrapping long example command lines
to make them look nicer. And also to avoid triggering the build error
caused by too long lines in the output.

Quoted lines cannot be wrapped, so managen now errors out if they are
"too long". With this addition, the 'maxline' script is removed as it is
no longer needed.

cmdline-opts: category cleanup

Option cleanups:

--get is not upload
--form* are post
- added several options into ldap, smtp, imap and pop3
- shortened the category descriptions in the list

category curl fixes:

--create-dirs removed from 'curl'
--ftp-create-dirs removed from 'curl'
--netrc moved to 'auth' from 'curl'
--netrc-file moved to 'auth' from 'curl'
--netrc-optional moved to 'auth' from 'curl'
--no-buffer moved to 'output' from 'curl'
--no-clobber removed from 'curl'
--output removed from 'curl'
--output-dir removed from 'curl'
--remove-on-error removed from 'curl'

Add a "global" category:

- Made all "global" options set this category

Add a "deprecated" category:

- Moved the deprecated options to it (maybe they should not be in any
category long term)

Add a 'timeout' category

- Put a number of appropriate options in it

Add an 'ldap' category

- Put the LDAP related option in there

Remove categories "ECH" and "ipfs"

- They should not be categories. Had only one single option each.

Remove category "misc"

- It should not be a category as it is impossible to know when to browse
it.

--use-ascii moved to ftp and output
--xattr moved to output
--service-name moved to auth

Managen fixes:

- errors if an option is given a category name that is not already setup
for in code

- verifies that options set `scope: global` also is put in category
`global´

docs/cmdline: change to .md for cmdline docs

- switch all invidual files documenting command line options into .md,
as the documentation is now markdown-looking.

- made the parser treat 4-space indents as quotes

- switch to building the curl.1 manpage using the "mainpage.idx" file,
which lists the files to include to generate it, instead of using the
previous page-footer/headers. Also, those files are now also .md
ones, using the same format. I gave them underscore prefixes to make
them sort separately:
_NAME.md, _SYNOPSIS.md, _DESCRIPTION.md, _URL.md, _GLOBBING.md,
_VARIABLES.md, _OUTPUT.md, _PROTOCOLS.md, _PROGRESS.md, _VERSION.md,
_OPTIONS.md, _FILES.md, _ENVIRONMENT.md, _PROXYPREFIX.md,
_EXITCODES.md, _BUGS.md, _AUTHORS.md, _WWW.md, _SEEALSO.md

- updated test cases accordingly
