Subject: [SEMANAGE] Manpage reorganization

Hi, this patch does the following:

Existing manpages:
===============
- remove listing of objects in each dbase function - this doesn't scale, 
I have to change it in 10+ places to add a new object, and it's really 
annoying. Just present the function template, and then we'll have 
per-object overview pages that link to that template, so the user won't 
be confused [ see new pages added below ].

- move the controlling page from *_user_local.3 to an object-neutral page:
semanage_add.3, semanage_modify.3, semanage_list.3 ... etc

- fix some allignment issues
- add "(3)" to references to other manpages so man2html makes links

New manpages:
============
- add an overview page for each object type, which gives all the 
functions for that object: semanage_fcontext.3 semanage_user.3, 
semanage_seuser.3, semanage_bool.3..etc. This page becomes more valuable 
when the functions listed there are also hyperlinks.

========
We should run man2html over all those pages, and host the result 
somewhere, once it's more complete.
Russell suggested James Morris' page (selinuxnews.org?)

I also plan to write a semanage.3 page.
