2d31b0a3f8 man: supervise-daemon: fix various style issues
The .Dt header is supposed to be all caps.  This was mixing case.

The options block was being incorrectly indented due to a missing .El.

Some of the new options were missing the .It block, so add that.

Finally, the -D option was missing capitalization.

This will allow us to signal the daemon we are supervising as well as
send other commands to the supervisor in the future.

This fixes #227.

0f704402a2 supervise-daemon: make the pidfile an implementation detail
The pidfile of the supervisor doesn't need to be adjustable by the
service script. It is only used so the supervisor can stop itself when
the --stop option is used.

Health checks are a way to monitor a service and make sure it stays
healthy.

If a service is not healthy, it will be automatically restarted after
running the unhealthy() function to clean up.

17b5cc78d3 add retry option to supervise-daemon
The --retry option for supervise-daemon defines how the supervisor will
attempt to stop the child process it is monitoring. It is defined when
the supervisor is started since stopping the supervisor just sends a
signal to the active supervisor.

This fixes #160.

4c89e3f5fa supervise-daemon:create multiple options from --respawn-limit
This creates --respawn-delay, --respawn-max and --respawn-period. It was
suggested that it would be easier to follow if the options were
separated.

This is for #126.

3673040722 supervise-daemon: add a --respawn-limit option
Allow limiting the number of times supervise-daemon will attempt to respawn a
daemon once it has died to prevent infinite respawning. Also, set a
reasonable default limit (10 times in a 5 second period).

This is for issue #126.
