[man pages]: Revise some syntax synopses.
Use ellipsis more idiomatically, favoring it over plurals, and including it within instead of outside option brackets for clarity. The construction: foo bar [baz] ... is ambiguous. If I specify no "baz", can "bar"s be repeated? Also say "argument" when we mean an option OR an operand.
