bash(1): please fix a few typos and some style stuff

Hi Chet, Matthias,

While updating the French translation of Bash manual pages (for the
manpages-fr-extra package), I spotted a few typos and other style stuff.
Please find attached a patch against the version shipped in the source
package also available online [1] (bash-manpage.patch) and a patch
against the version shipped in the binary debian package
(bash-manpage-debian.patch with a pair of added modifications).

[1] ftp://ftp.cwru.edu/pub/bash/bash.1.gz

Please also consider modifying unsupported by po4a alternative stuff like:

> .if t \fB|  &  ;  (  )  <  >  space  tab\fP
> .if n \fB|  & ; ( ) < > space tab\fP

around line 470 to something equivalent like:

> .if t .ss 24
> \fB|  & ; ( ) < > space tab\fP
> .if t .ss 12

The same remark applies for the copyright around line 50 and some other
stuff along the document. I'm willing to try and help on this stuff if
you are to consider it. Note that we will be glad if you decided to
sheep directly the French translation of manual pages upstream.

Cheers

David
