Tweak man syntax in aelflod.1 and aslod.1

Browse source 
Put end of sentence at end of line.  This is roff(7) syntax so the
formatter can make spacing between sentences.

Use the macro .PP to break paragraphs.  Use bold for the command name
in SYNOPSIS, to match other ack manuals.

The input file must contain exactly four segments: TEXT, ROM,
DATA and BSS, in that order, all occupying contiguous memory.
The file must have all references resolved and be linked to a
fixed address. The fixed address must be at least 0x54 bytes
greater than a page boundary, in order to make room for the ELF
header itself.
