man-generator: markup updates

Emit .ad l / .ad b less frequently around larger blocks
we want to keep left aligned.

Avoid emittting empty lines.

Reduce .HP usage and replace it with .TP.
However keep .HP for all option listings, as i.e. html rendering
can't handle well combintion of .TP an .HP together and .TP alone
is not indenting 2nd. line of long option line.
(For .TP line we don't need to emit .br)

Surround .SH with dots for better look.

For some .TP use plain more readable .I for a line.

Support rendering of optional [Number] (for --units).

Use better markup for units and instead of long markup string,
show individual units with markup.
