Fix manpage reference formatting to be consistent.
All manpage references such as pcap_create(3PCAP) will now be formatted
with the identifier (e.g. "pcap_create") in **bold** and the section
name (e.g. "(3PCAP)") in roman (default) face. This is how most manpages
seem to be formatted and makes things more consistent.
