5c1966823e Add the times builtin. It reports the user and system time for the shell
itself and its children.  Instead of calling times() (as implied by POSIX) this
implementation directly calls getrusage() to get the times because this is more
convenient.

567c029373 Put the description of the -c option in the right place, as
promised by the Argument List Processing section introduction.
What follows the option in the options list is its long name,
not its argument (as is the case for the -c option).  Also
sort references in the SEE ALSO section.
