[docs]: Fix content and style nits.
Discuss alignment, adjustment, and margins more carefully. Adjustment doesn't spread output lines to "both margins" if the indentation is nonzero. Describe the adjustment process explicitly. Add emphasis distinguishing `.ce` from `.ad c`. Drop terms "ragged-left" and "ragged-right" from running text (but keep their concept index entries).
