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

Long: retry-delay
Arg: <seconds>
Help: Wait time between retries
Added: 7.12.3
Category: curl
Example: --retry-delay 5 --retry $URL
---
Make curl sleep this amount of time before each retry when a transfer has
failed with a transient error (it changes the default backoff time algorithm
between retries). This option is only interesting if --retry is also
used. Setting this delay to zero will make curl use the default backoff time.
If this option is used several times, the last one will be used.
