doc: fix various issues.

* RELNOTES: Fix typos.

* txr.1: Correct alist-remove and alist-nremove's argument
lists (the keys are variadic). Remove "(the empty string)" from
abs-path-p examples because it formats bizarrely in man output
and is anyway mentioned in the description. Remove spurious
spaces from .mets lines interfering with the formatting. Add some
missing .code and .meta directives. Unitalicize words of Latin
origin that have entered the dictionary ("de facto" and "vice
versa"). Add hyphens to compound words used as adjectives. Remove
hyphen from "non-matching". Move periods inside parentheses
containing full sentences. Add missing words. Remove repeated
words. Fix various other minor issues.

* txr.c (help): Fix a typo. Clarify a description. Add missing
periods. Make some other minor changes.
