2df67e93c3 docs: clarify data replacement policy for MIME API
The API documentation for the MIME functions specify that the parts
can be set twice, with the last call winning.  While true, the user
can set the parts n times for n > 2, reword to specify multiple API
calls instead.

docs: consistent manpage SYNOPSIS
Make all libcurl related options use .nf (no fill) for the SYNOPSIS
section - for consistent look. roffit then renders that section using
<pre> (monospace font) in html for the website.

Extended manpage-syntax (test 1173) with a basic check for it.

man pages: require all to use the same section header order
This is the same order we already enforce among the options' man pages:
consistency is good. Add lots of previously missing examples.

Adjust the manpage-syntax script for this purpose, used in test 1173.

terminology: call them null-terminated strings
Updated terminology in docs, comments and phrases to refer to C strings
as "null-terminated". Done to unify with how most other C oriented docs
refer of them and what users in general seem to prefer (based on a
single highly unscientific poll on twitter).

1a3f4c1991 mime: remove support "-" stdin pseudo-file name in curl_mime_filedata().
This feature is badly supported in Windows: as a replacement, a caller has
to use curl_mime_data_cb() with fread, fseek and possibly fclose
callbacks to process opened files.

The cli tool and documentation are updated accordingly.

The feature is however kept internally for form API compatibility, with
the known caveats it always had.

As a side effect, stdin size is not determined by the cli tool even if
possible and this results in a chunked transfer encoding. Test 173 is
updated accordingly.
