- support for ftp downloads

- protocol version changed to 1.0 (to stop servers from requesting
chunked encoding)
- bugfix: in the case when content-length not given, wget didn't
download anything
- when attempting to continue an aborted download but server doesn't
support restarts, reopen output file in write mode
- changed assumption that existing file should restart an aborted
download. Now the user must explicitly specify this with -c

- changed the way POD is generated such that the dashed
...
line appears at the bottom instead of the top. The
indentation semantics of POD make the first item in
the (=over,=back) block look weird the other way.
- implemented a way to encode example usage into usage.h
One would define a macro called "${applet}_example_usage"
which would expand to the example text.
- The example usage is considered optional, but trivial and
full usage are not.
Here's an example using chown.
---- before
#define chown_trivial_usage \
"[OPTION]... OWNER[<.|:>[GROUP] FILE..."
#define chown_full_usage \
"Change the owner and/or group of each FILE to OWNER and/or GROUP.\n" \
"\nOptions:\n" \
"\t-R\tChanges files and directories recursively."
#define chown_example_usage \
"\t$ ls -l /tmp/foo\n" \
"\t-r--r--r-- 1 andersen andersen 0 Apr 12 18:25 /tmp/foo\n" \
"\t$ chown root /tmp/foo\n" \
"\t$ ls -l /tmp/foo\n" \
"\t-r--r--r-- 1 root andersen 0 Apr 12 18:25 /tmp/foo\n" \
"\t$ chown root.root /tmp/foo\n" \
"\tls -l /tmp/foo\n" \
"\t-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Apr 12 18:25 /tmp/foo\n"
---- after
=item I<chown>
chown [OPTION]... OWNER[<.|:>[GROUP] FILE...
Change the owner and/or group of each FILE to OWNER and/or GROUP.
Options:
-R Changes files and directories recursively.
Example:
$ ls -l /tmp/foo
-r--r--r-- 1 andersen andersen 0 Apr 12 18:25 /tmp/foo
$ chown root /tmp/foo
$ ls -l /tmp/foo
-r--r--r-- 1 root andersen 0 Apr 12 18:25 /tmp/foo
$ chown root.root /tmp/foo
ls -l /tmp/foo
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Apr 12 18:25 /tmp/foo

minor cleanup... all that's left to do is

* make headers and footers for both the POD and SGML content
* make an SGML generator
* finish the command-line handling
Also, some of the documentation in usage.h will have to
be adjusted. expr needs some lines to be indented, and
ls has a stray comma. I may have missed some things...
but it looks OK for the most part.
