42186e4f70 Put back the quote from Chinggis Khan removed in rev. 1.259.
The quote predated rev. 1.232, which rev. 1.259 was to correct;
therefore it was protected by the "Don't remove fortunes" rule.

d317da326d Fix a few small typos, and remove one duplicate.
I'm intentionally not sorting this file since it won't be added to.
(Although, if it were sorted the duplicate would have been easier to see.)

a9c785f085 The ../tools/do_sort script could not differentiate between
a few very slightly diffrent versions of tcsh prompts, so
restore the 2 that were lost, and consolidate them all in
a way that will prevent them from being lost again.

6bd01c70a2 Combine the fortunes-o.real and the fortunes2-o file, as was done
with fortunes and fortunes2 2 years and 2 days ago. The fortunes2-o
file was brought in with the original import of the 4.4 Lite games
directory, but has always consisted in large part of fortunes
duplicated from other files.

The combined size of the two files is still only 631K, or less
than 1/3rd of the size of the fortunes file.

Combining them has the added benefit of making the fortunes from
fortunes2-o visibile to fortune(6)'s -m option.

This change should probably not be MFC'ed beyond RELENG_7.

a738f66c05 This is a massive cleanup of the fortune files, including removal
of many duplicates, formatting/whitespace fixes, spelling fixes,
and a host of others. Note: No fortunes were intentionally removed
(other than duplicates) as part of this cleanup. In removing dupes
I tried to be generous in not removing similarly worded fortunes
that had even slightly different punch lines.

Duplicates were resolved as follows (in this order):
* + limerick		-> limerick
* + fortunes-o.real	-> fortunes-o.real
* + fortunes2-o		-> fortunes2-o
* + zippy		-> zippy
murphy + fortunes	-> fortunes

In correcting spelling I've tried to leave colloquial variations
(especially British'isms) intact, as well as to not "correct"
errors that are part of the joke.

In fortunes and fortunes2-o I combined a couple of fortunes that
were adjacent to each other that seemed like they should have
originally been combined, and split a couple that seemed like they
should have originally been split.

Miscellaneous:
1. Fixed underlining
2. Capitalized proper names
3. Removed quotation marks from "freestanding" quotes for consistency
4. Added quotation marks to QOTD fortunes that needed them
5. Corrected or added many attributions
6. Removed apostrophes from trailing 's' that are plural, not possessive
7. Updated the path to fortune stuff included in some of the jokes
8. Updated several fortunes to their original version, and added attribution
9. Split up compound words that ispell tripped over
