PATCH: minor typo cleanup of pod/ directory
These are all in the pod/ directory, and only the first is a code fix. There was also a single lingering ISO 8859-1 encoding that missed the UTF-8 upconvert. The rest are cleanups for typos, some of which seem to have been around for a rather long time: spelling errors, incorrect possessives, and extra, missing, or duplicated words. If you actually read through, I bet you'll realize what sparked this. :) --tom Signed-off-by: Abigail <abigail@abigail.be>

At time of writing, C<LE<lt>nameE<gt>> values are of two types:
either the name of a Pod page like C<LE<lt>Foo::BarE<gt>> (which
might be a real Perl module or program in an @INC / PATH
-directory, or a .pod file in those places); or the name of a UNIX
+directory, or a .pod file in those places); or the name of a Unix
man page, like C<LE<lt>crontab(5)E<gt>>. In theory, C<LE<lt>chmodE<gt>>
in ambiguous between a Pod page called "chmod", or the Unix man page
"chmod" (in whatever man-section). However, the presence of a string
in parens, as in "crontab(5)", is sufficient to signal that what
is being discussed is not a Pod page, and so is presumably a
-UNIX man page. The distinction is of no importance to many
+Unix man page. The distinction is of no importance to many
Pod processors, but some processors that render to hypertext formats
may need to distinguish them in order to know how to render a
given C<LE<lt>fooE<gt>> code.
