[PATCH 3/8] winsup/doc: Some preparatory XML fixes


Remove the inconsistent .exe suffix in strace and umount usage lines.

Consistently refer to cross-references outside utils.xml as being in the Cygwin
User's Guide.  This helps to generate sensible looking references in generated
manpages.

Tidy up some trailing whitespace.

Tabs inside <screen> are not consistently formatted by all formatters, replace
with spaces.

Remove pointlesss and incorrect date

2015-06-12  Jon Turney  <jon.turney@dronecode.org.uk>

	* cygwin-ug-net.xml: Remove incorrect unused date.
	* utils.xml : Remove .exe suffix inconsistently added in a few
	places.  Consistently refer to cross-references outside this file
	as in the Cygwin User's Guide.  Tidy up some trailing whitespace.
