Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek fe45f8dc9b man: drop whitespace from final <programlisting> lines
In the troff output, this doesn't seem to make any difference. But in the
html output, the whitespace is sometimes preserved, creating an additional
gap before the following content. Drop it everywhere to avoid this.

<title>Description</title>
<para>The <function>sd_bus_message_dump()</function> function writes a textual representation of the
message <parameter>m</parameter> to the stream <parameter>f</parameter>. If <parameter>f</parameter> is
<constant>NULL</constant>, standard output (<constant>stdio</constant>) will be used. This function is
intended to be used for debugging purposes, and the output is neither stable nor designed to be machine
readable.</para>
<para>The <parameter>flags</parameter> parameter may be used to modify the output. With
<constant>SD_BUS_MESSAGE_DUMP_WITH_HEADER</constant>, a header that specifies the message type and flags
and some additional metadata is printed. When <constant>SD_BUS_MESSAGE_DUMP_SUBTREE_ONLY</constant> is
not passed, the contents of the whole message are printed. When it <emphasis>is</emphasis> passed,
only the current container in printed.</para>
<para>Note that this function moves the read pointer of the message. It may be necessary to reset the
position afterwards, for example with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_rewind</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
