Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek b1de39dec8 man: make separate "Errors" sections subsection of "Return value"
Logically, this is better, because we're describing a subset of possible
return values. Visually this also looks quite good because groff renders
refsect2 much less prominently.

Also rewrap things, add <constant> in various places, fix some typos.

<title>Description</title>
<para>The <function>sd_bus_reply_method_error()</function> function sends an
error reply to the <parameter>call</parameter> message. The error structure
<parameter>e</parameter> specifies the error to send, and is used as described in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_new_error</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
If no reply is expected to <parameter>call</parameter>, this function returns
success without sending reply.</para>
<para>The <function>sd_bus_reply_method_errorf()</function> is to

<para>These functions return 0 if the error reply was successfully sent or if
none was expected, and a negative errno-style error code otherwise.</para>
