I clarified the code about two things:
- Checking how many arguments are being passed.
Here, some functions didn't reject extra arguments when they
weren't being used. Fix that.
I also changed the code to use $#, which is more explicit.
And use arithmetic expressions, which better indicate that
we're dealing with numbers.
- Remove unneeded options from sort.

After Stefan asked about why am I using 'sort -V',
I noticed that I really don't need '-V', and it may confuse
people trying to understand the script, so even though I
slightly prefer the output of 'sort -V', in this case, it's
better to use the simpler 'sort' (yet I need 'sort', to
maintain consistency in the results (find is quite random)).

Fix the error messages to clearly show that both dirs and manual
pages are accepted, and that more than one argument is accepted.

This patch makes man_lsfunc() search for the function prototypes,
instead of relying on the current manual page formatting,
which might change in the future, and break this function.
It also simplifies the code, by reusing man_section().
Create a new function sed_rm_ccomments(), which is needed by
man_lsfunc(), and may also be useful in other cases.

The output of 'git status' is not stable.
The more stable 'git status --porcelain' is more complex,
and scripting around it would be more complex.
However, 'git diff --staged --name-only' produces
the output that we were lookiong for.

That file should be sourced (.) from 'bashrc' (or 'bash_aliases').
It contains functions that are useful for the maintenance of this
project.
- grep_syscall()
- grep_syscall_def()
- man_section()
- man_lsfunc()
- pdfman()
- grep_glibc_prototype()

The script can be used this way:
git commit -sm "$(./scripts/modified_pages.sh): Short commit msg"
And then maybe --amend and add a longer message.
This is especially useful for changes to many pages at once,
usually when running a script to apply some global changes.

This header is used inconsistently -- man pages are UTF-8 encoded
but not setting this marker. It's only respected by the man-db
package, and seems a bit anachronistic at this point when UTF-8
is the standard default nowadays.

It's easier to run `./scripts/foo.sh ...` than
`bash ./scripts/foo.sh ...`. Mark them all +x to support that.

If a single quote falls at the start of a line, then the rest of
the line is treated as a comment. Therefore, escape single quotes.

command-line arguments. This is useful to remove the COLOPHON sections
from all of the man pages in two different release trees in order to do a
"diff -ruN" to see the "real" differences between the trees.
