Clean up the NAME section.
The entries in the NAME section of these man pages have man pages of their
own, so it doesn't make sense to have their names here, instead they
should be just described in the body (similar to what we do in math(3) man page).
This also helps whatis(1) and apropos(1), as otherwise you would see multiple
results with the same name in the output, while there is actually only one page
with that name.
Good example is:
$ apropos -n 2 -M realloc
realloc (3) general memory allocation operations
realloc (3) general purpose memory allocation functions
The first line is there because memory(3) man page had realloc in its
NAME section. This commit will fix this issue.
