cmdline-opts: language cleanups 
Use imperative mood consistently for the first sentence describing an
option.

"Set this" instead "tell curl to set" or "this sets..."

Plus some extra cleanups and rephrasing.

--request-target

Use an alternative target (path) instead of using the path as provided in the URL. Particularly useful when wanting to issue HTTP requests without leading slash or other data that does not follow the regular URL pattern, like "OPTIONS *".

curl passes on the verbatim string you give it its the request without any filter or other safe guards. That includes white space and control characters.
