- Use @samp for packet contents.
- Drop summaries from packet @item lines; the same information appears
immediately below in the description.
- Delete paragraph breaks after packet @item commands, so that the
description appears directly to the right of the packet prototype
in the printed manual, if it fits.
- Place spaces in packet prototypes between @vars and non-@var
letters, and explain that they're just for formatting.
- Use @dots{} instead of '...'.
- Fix uses of @code where @var was needed.
- Replace "deprecated" markers with English text spelling out the
packet's status and the preferred alternatives.
- Remove "(reserved)" markers on 'A' and 'I' packets; it's unclear
what this ever meant.
- Remove "(draft)" markers on 'i' packets; nobody has commented on
this for a long time.
- Remove "(draft)" markers on 'z' and 'Z' packets; these have been
implemented several times, and have been in use for years.
