schwarze Minor cleanup in several of the FUSE manuals, including: * clarify that dying from a signal is not considered a failure of fuse_loop(3) * add many missing .Dv macros and a few missing .Pa and .Er macros * remove future tense in several cases where it's pointless * polish some capitalization and punctuation and fix a few typos OK helg@ 6mo ago
