8c96c247df Update mdoc(7) and mdoc.samples(7) to list the preferred order
of manual page sections.  Make the two man pages consistent
with each other in the headers they list and they order they list
them in.

Note:  this is the preferred ordering.  All new man pages/additions
to man pages should try and follow this.  Existing man pages
should be left alone, unless you are making major changes  in
the man page and re-ordering of the sections is only a
minor part of the change.

Also use the correct macro (.D1, not .Dl) to format the text,
and in the example output.

".Rv -std atexit" will generate the following text:

The atexit() function returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise the
value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the
error.
