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.

.TH CURLOPT_DOH_URL 3 "18 Jun 2018" "libcurl 7.62.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
.SH NAME
CURLOPT_DOH_URL \- provide the DNS-over-HTTPS URL
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_DOH_URL, char *URL);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
Pass in a pointer to a \fIURL\fP for the DoH server to use for name
resolving. The parameter should be a char * to a null-terminated string which
must be URL-encoded in the following format: "https://host:port/path". It MUST
specify a HTTPS URL.
libcurl does not validate the syntax or use this variable until the transfer is
issued. Even if you set a crazy value here, \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP will
still return \fICURLE_OK\fP.
curl sends POST requests to the given DNS-over-HTTPS URL.
To find the DoH server itself, which might be specified using a name, libcurl
will use the default name lookup function. You can bootstrap that by providing
the address for the DoH server with \fICURLOPT_RESOLVE(3)\fP.
Disable DoH use again by setting this option to NULL.
.SH "INHERIT OPTIONS"
DoH lookups use SSL and some SSL settings from your transfer are inherited,
like \fICURLOPT_SSL_CTX_FUNCTION(3)\fP.
The hostname and peer certificate verification settings are not inherited but
can be controlled separately via \fICURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYHOST(3)\fP and
\fICURLOPT_DOH_SSL_VERIFYPEER(3)\fP.
A set \fICURLOPT_OPENSOCKETFUNCTION(3)\fP callback is not inherited.
.SH DEFAULT
NULL - there is no default DoH URL. If this option is not set, libcurl will use
the default name resolver.
.SH PROTOCOLS
All
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_DOH_URL, "https://dns.example.com");
curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
.fi
.SH AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.62.0
.SH RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK on success or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient
heap space.
Note that \fIcurl_easy_setopt(3)\fP will not actually parse the given string so
given a bad DoH URL, curl will not detect a problem until it tries to resolve
a name with it.
