`podman system service` + TCP is not a configuration we should be
recommending. There was already language about this in the
manpages, but it was not sufficient in explaining how bad of an
idea this is. Expand the manpage warnings, add a dedicated
heading so people notice, and add a warning every time the
service starts with a TCP URL that directs people to the manpage
to see that explanation.

Regarding "The command does not support more than one listening socket for the API service."
See this Podman source code: (a permalink into the main branch as of 2 July 2023)
539be58163/cmd/podman/system/service_abi.go (L48-L50)
Move up the paragraph "The REST API provided ...".
Move up the sentence "Note: The default systemd ...".

We had a number of references, mostly in docs, to the word master that
can now be changed to main. This PR does that and makes the project a
bit more inclusive.

The manpage for `podman system service` should mention that this
is not safe for external consumption unless you are comfortable
giving anyone who accesses it full root on the system.

Command flags (OPTIONS) in man pages have to date been in
haphazard order. Sometimes that order is sensible, e.g.,
most-important options first, but more often they're
just in arbitrary places. This makes life hard for users.
Here, I update the man-page-check Makefile script so it
checks and enforces alphabetical order in OPTIONS sections.
Then -- the hard part -- update all existing man pages to
conform to this requirement.

Commit 800a2e2d35 introduced a way to disable the conversion of `--`into
an en dash on docs.podman.io, so the ugly workaround of escaping the
dashes is no longer necessary.

Once we settle on the wording for short-names in podman-pull, I will
add the same section to all of the podman commands that use pull.
Also ran through all man pages with a spell checker.

Escape the two dashes, otherwise they are combined into one long dash.
I tested that this change is safe and still renders correctly on github
and with the man pages.
This commit also contains a small change to make it build locally.
Assuming you have the dependencies installed you can do:
```
cd docs
make html
```
Preview the html files in docs/build/html with
`python -m http.server 8000 --directory build/html`.

The rest of this document claims that the argument is called '--time',
not '--timeout', and that the value is expressed in seconds. As
currently written, the example (which ostensibly runs the API service
for 5 seconds) uses the '--timeout' spelling (which actually does work,
as an undocumented alias) and passes a value of '5000', which is more
than an hour. Fix both.
[NO TESTS NEEDED] as this is a simple documentation change.

I'm tired of seeing these every time I run 'make':
WARNING: go-md2man does not handle node type HTMLSpan
Cause: left-angle-brackets ( < ) in document source
Solution:
1) backquote-escape those that need to be shown, usually
ones referring to an argument or email address; or
2) Actual HTML ( <sup> and <a> ) which are meant to be
shown in generated HTML docs but can't be shown in
man pages, we filter out via a sed expression.

Change the docs markdown so that flag names will be h4 headers.
Sphinx will automatically add anchors to headers. Add css to
make sure the flag names are not to big compared to the text.
The man pages also still renders fine but it looks a bit different.

This makes it clear that we target compatibility with a specific
Docker version (v1.40), but do not reject other versions. It also
adds a link to documentation on the Podman-specific API.
