Implement proper synopsis wrapping for HTML generation.

This was done in three pieces.  First, add HTML-specific tags to the POD to
mark the synopsis for HTML purposes so that we can apply style information
to it.  Second, update the style sheet to indent all lines except for the
first in the synopsis section.  Third, add the appropriate S<> tags around
option and argument pairs so that we don't wrap between the option and its
argument.

Unfortunately, due to the <I<foo>> style that looks nicer for other reasons,
we have to use the very verbose S<<< >>>.  Oh well.

=head1 NAME
kadb_check - Checks the integrity of the Authentication Database
=head1 SYNOPSIS
=for html
<div class="synopsis">
B<kadb_check> S<<< B<-database> <I<kadb file>> >>> [B<-uheader>] [B<-kheader>]
[B<-entries>] [B<-verbose>] S<<< [B<-rebuild> <I<out file>>] >>> [B<-help>]
B<kadb_check> S<<< B<-d> <I<kadb file>> >>> [B<-u>] [B<-k>] [B<-e>] [B<-v>]
S<<< [B<-r> <I<out file>>] >>> [B<-h>]
=for html
</div>
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The B<kadb_check> command checks the integrity of the Protection Database,
reporting any errors or corruption it finds. If there are problems, do not
issue any B<kas> commands until the database is repaired.
=head1 CAUTIONS
The results can be unpredictable if the Authentication Server makes
changes to the Authentication Database while this command is running. Use
the B<bos shutdown> command to shutdown the local B<kaserver> process
before running this command, or before creating a second copy of the
F<kaserver.DB0> file (with a different name) on which to run the command.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-database> <I<kadb file>>
Names the Authentication Database (copy of the F<kaserver.DB0> file) to
check. If the current working directory is not the location of the file,
provide a pathname, either full or relative to the current working
directory.
=item B<-uheader>
Displays information which Ubik maintains in the database's header.
=item B<-kheader>
Displays information which the Authentication Server maintains in the
database's header.
=item B<-entries>
Outputs every entry in the database, providing information similar to that
returned by the B<kas examine> command.
=item B<-verbose>
Reports additional information about the database, including the number of
free (allocated but unused) entries in the database.
=item B<-rebuild> <I<out file>>
Names the file in which to record a list of B<kas> commands which, if
issued in the command shell, recreate the current state of the database
being verified. Partial pathnames are interpreted relative to the current
working directory.
=item B<-help>
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are
ignored.
=back
=head1 OUTPUT
If there are errors in the database, the output always reports them on the
standard error stream. If any options other than B<-database> or B<-help>
are provided, the output written to the standard output stream includes
additional information as described for each option in L<OPTIONS>. The
output is intended for debugging purposes and is meaningful to someone
familiar with the internal structure of the Authentication Database.
=head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must be logged in as the local superuser C<root>.
