    manpages: more fixes to minuses, hyphens, dashes
    
    Debian still carries patches patches to the iptables nroff code touching
    ASCII minuses, so I thought, what's it this time.
    
    Eventually, this patch tries to straighten things once more, per
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Hyphens and
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Dashes .
    
    Titles will get the em dash; all typed commands or parameters with a
    hyphen get a minus (so that man(1) hyperlinking and copy-pasting does
    work), but other mentions get the hyphen.
