6940430c55 top: correct field order within Section 3a, man document
This section purported to list fields in alphabetical
order, but this was not always true.

With this commit, strict ascii collating sequence is
now observed.

47100a8125 docs: fix manual page warnings
All warnings where about unnecessary quoting.  The scriptlet
below will tell what was wrong.

for I in ./top/top.1 ./ps/ps.1 ./*.[0-9]; do
    echo "== $I warnings =="
    man --warnings=all $I > /dev/null
done

This should probably be turned to 'make check' script.

e9a9bad264 top: document an existing provision of pid monitoring
Since its inception top has provided for monitoring
only specific process ids via the -p command line
switch.  This provision has also embraced the top
process itself, even though its pid wasn't yet known.

This commit simply documents the special zero value,
which would otherwise be an invalid process id.

2fc3f15770 top: refer to memory using strict IEC standard names
Admittedly, top referred to memory quantities in
a variety of non-standard ways.  This commit brings
the program and supporting documentation into strict
compliance with IEC standard binary names.

According to wikipedia, as of 2012 this IEC standard
was still not in widespread use.  However, I'm making
this change now for the anal-retentive among us.
