AlexandClaude Opus 4.8 a3b39cfcf6 docs(man): backfill man pages with wiki-only info (source-of-truth pass)
Port information that previously lived only in the GitHub wiki into the
authoritative scdoc man pages, so the man pages become the single source
of truth for module documentation.

33 man pages enriched (options, format replacements, actions, style
selectors, troubleshooting and implementation notes). Additions were
verified against the source; stale/incorrect wiki entries were
deliberately not ported. All pages still compile with scdoc.

# REWRITE RULES
*rewrite* is an object where keys are regular expressions and values are

captures of the expression.
Regular expression and replacement follow ECMA-script rules.
If no expression matches, the format output is left unchanged.
Invalid expressions (e.g., mismatched parentheses) are skipped.
