We used .br to force a simple line break (with no extra blank line)
after the tag.
Recently, we added .RS/.RS, and .RS comes just after the tag,
and I realized by accident that .RS already forces a simple line break.
Therefore, .br is completely redundant here, and can be removed.
This way we get rid of "raw" *roff requests in this page.

The previous format/wording for the includes wasn't very clear.
Improve it a bit following Branden's proposal.
It also helps reduce lines of code.
Add a subsection in NOTES explaining the conventions used.
Remove the comment for helping maintain the page,
as the NOTES section is now clear enough.

The contents of each type are a logical block that is indented as
a block. They are not separate paragraphs that happen to be
indented separately, but a set of continuous paragraphs, all at
the same level, indented as a block from the list entry--the name
of the type--. Therefore, it makes more sense to use block
indentation, represented by .RS/.RE, rather than indenting each
paragraph separately. That way it's also easier to further indent
a separate paragraph inside a block, which happens for example in
the case of float_t & double_t. It's simply much easier now to
use .IP specifically in those cases where you want to indent just
a single paragraph.
Also added an ending separator comment line just after the last
type.

The existing text comes straight from POSIX. In copyright terms,
this is at least a gray area, and in any case, simply reproducing
the text of the standard has limited value, since people can
consult the standard directly. So, rewrite the text, to simply
quote the description from fenv(3).

The implementation shall support one or more programming
environments where these types are no wider than 'long'.

Add note about length modifiers and conversions to [u]intmax_t,
and add a corresponding example.

Note: There are a few members of this structure that are
not required by POSIX (XSI extensions, and such).
I simply chose to not document them at all.
