Ellipses were used to express that the '-rand' value can specify
multiple files, like this:
B<-rand> I<file...>
Because there are conventions around ellipses, this becomes confusing,
because '-rand file...' is normally intepreted to mean that
'-rand file1 file2 file3' would be processed as three randomness
files, which makes no sense.
Rather than making things complicated with more elaborate syntax, we
change it to:
B<-rand> I<files>

Make find-doc-nits understand that
=for comment ifdef ssl3 ...
in a POD page means that the "-ssl3" flag might be ifdef'd out in the
local environment, and not to complain about it.

For documentation of all commands with "-flag arg" format them
consistently: "B<-flag> I<arg>", except when arg is literal
(for example "B<-inform> B<PEM>|B<DER>")
Update find-doc-nits to complain if badly formatted strings are found.

Initially, the manual page entry for the 'openssl cmd' command used
to be available at 'cmd(1)'. Later, the aliases 'openssl-cmd(1)' was
introduced, which made it easier to group the openssl commands using
the 'apropos(1)' command or the shell's tab completion.
In order to reduce cluttering of the global manual page namespace,
the manual page entries without the 'openssl-' prefix have been
deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0 and will be removed in OpenSSL 4.0.
