Ed Santiago 281def2647 man pages: fix inconsistencies
I wrote a script to cross-reference podman --help against
man pages. It found a bunch of inconsistencies fix them:

 * options missing from man pages
 * options misspelled or misformatted in man pages (usually
   misplaced asterisks or missing dashes, but see --dns-opt)
 * one spurious comma in the actual source file --help

This is a fix in which I iterate over 'podman CMD --help'
and check for presence in man pages. The other way around
(look for flags in man pages, check podman CMD --help)
is probably impossible: there are too many special cases

% podman-kill(1)
## NAME
podman\-kill - Kill the main process in one or more containers
## SYNOPSIS
**podman kill** [*options*] [*container* ...]
**podman container kill** [*options*] [*container* ...]
## DESCRIPTION
The main process inside each container specified will be sent SIGKILL, or any signal specified with option --signal.
## OPTIONS
**--all**, **-a**
Signal all running containers. This does not include paused containers.
**--latest**, **-l**
Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman
to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods.
The latest option is not supported on the remote client.
**--signal**, **-s**
Signal to send to the container. For more information on Linux signals, refer to *man signal(7)*.
## EXAMPLE
podman kill mywebserver
podman kill 860a4b23
podman kill --signal TERM 860a4b23
podman kill --latest
podman kill --signal KILL -a
