fma.3: Add some source code comments explaining two domain error cases.
...
Two of the "domain error" cases described on this page are treated in
the same way on Linux, but POSIX.1 specifies some optional differences
for the two cases. Make life easier for future page reviewers/editors
by adding some comments explaining that POSIX.1-2001 distinguishes
the two cases.

strcpy.3: Avoid redundantly filling the position 'n - 1' two times in strncpy() example code

When we use 'strncpy(buf, str, n)', strncpy() will fill chars from 0..(n - 1).
As we force the character at position 'n - 1' to be '\0' anyway, don't fill
it in strncpy() before.

Clarify closedir()'s treatment of underlying file descriptor.
...
At the end of the paragraph in opendir(3) describing fdopendir(), I
think it's worth adding "The file descriptor will be closed when
closedir() is called." It's a bit ambiguous if the file descriptor
is closed or "given back" at closedir time.
(I've tested this and verified that it's true, BTW.)

tsearch.3: dispose properly of allocated resources in example code

As there are many users who base their own code on these examples,
we should avoid leaking memory when using functions of tsearch() family.
In the provided example, tsearch() leaks memory whenever it tries to
insert a number which was already inserted before.
Also: include use of tdestroy() in example program.
