curl.1: provide examples for each option
The file format for each option now features a "Example:" header that
can provide one or more examples that get rendered appropriately in the
output. All options MUST have at least one example or gen.pl complains
at build-time.

This fix also does a few other minor format and consistency cleanups.

Closes #7654

Similar to --form except that the value string for the named parameter is used
literally. Leading \&'@' and \&'<' characters, and the \&';type=' string in
the value have no special meaning. Use this in preference to --form if
there's any possibility that the string value may accidentally trigger the
\&'@' or \&'<' features of --form.
