644ee05aab Update manual pages with markup and spacing fixes.
Added ability to use "@" symbol in command named in the inittab file. This
treats commands as literal and does not launch a shell to interpret them.

Updated inittab manual page to include overview of symbols which trigger
a shell interpretor and how to disable them using the @ symbol.

584df5efaf Added patch from William Shipley which allows shutdown time to be specified
in the format +hh:mm. This is in addition to the existing formats such as
hh:mm, +m, and "now".

Cleared up compiler warning in dowall which can happen if the
output message is longer than the size limit on the snprintf()
buffer. This is not a bug, a the trucation works, but using a larger
buffer avoids the warning on systems with long user/host names.

c45219c64f Added -q and -Q flags to shutdown command to make the "system is going down"
message appear less often. The -q flag causes messages to only appear at the
10 minute, 5 minute and x-hour intervals.
The -Q flag maintains complete silence up until the final "now" warning.

d27e34754a Unified shutdown and init to use 3 second wait between SIGTERM and
SIGKILL. Defined this value in init.h (WAIT_BETWEEN_SIGNALS) for
easy modification.
