Man pages: fix broken tables
Work around a go-md2man bug, and add a check script to make sure
this doesn't hit us again.
Background: go-md2man can't deal with a left-hand column > 31 chars.
It produces man pages that look like:
| Something With >31 Character | |
| | ..description |
(should be all on one row). It also has trouble when the vertical
bars are misaligned: it completely removes the right-hand side.
There's almost certainly a better solution: fix go-md2man, or
use a different conversion tool, or maybe even pre/postprocess.
But this is a quick interim solution.
Sorry for the perl. This could be done in bash/sed/awk/grep,
but not with any sort of sane error messages.

Usage: $ME [OPTIONS]
|
||||
|

$ME checks man pages (the *roff files produced
|
||||
by go-md2man) for empty table cells. Reason: go-md2man cannot handle
|
||||
markdown characters (e.g. asterisk) in tables. It produces horribly
|
||||
broken *roff which in turn makes unreadable man pages.
|
||||
|
||||
If $ME finds broken tables, it will highlight them
|
||||
and display hints on how to resolve the problem.

This is a bug in go-md2man: it gets really confused when it sees
