Lennart Poettering 8274a30d0e man: add missing references to sd_event_add_inotify()
These man pages list references to the various sd_event_add_xyz() calls
at the bottom, but sd_event_add_inotify() was never added there.

Moreover, some list references to sd_event_add_post() and
sd_event_add_exit() even though these have shared man pages with
sd_event_add_defer(), and given that the "SEE ALSO" section should
probably reference pages instead of functions let's drop this.

Then, let's always specify the sd_event_add_xyz() calls in the same
order.

Finally, in the sd_event_new(3) text explaining the basic logic,
actually mention sd_event_add_post() and sd_event_add_exit() as well, as
in that case we actually want to list functions, not man pages.

<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> may be used to
decrement by one the reference counter of the event source object
specified as <parameter>source</parameter>. The reference counter
is initially set to one, when the event source is created with calls
such as
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_io</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
or
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_event_add_time</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. When
the reference counter reaches zero it is removed from its event loop
object and destroyed.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_source_unrefp()</function> is similar to
<function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> but takes a pointer to a
pointer to an <type>sd_event_source</type> object. This call is useful in
conjunction with GCC's and LLVM's <ulink
url="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Variable-Attributes.html">Clean-up
Variable Attribute</ulink>. Note that this function is defined as
inline function.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_source_ref()</function> may be used
to increase by one the reference counter of the event source object
specified as <parameter>source</parameter>.</para>
<para><function>sd_event_source_unref()</function>,
<function>sd_bus_creds_unrefp()</function> and
<function>sd_bus_creds_ref()</function> execute no operation if
the passed event source object is
<constant>NULL</constant>.</para>
<para>Note that event source objects stay alive and may be
dispatched as long as they have a reference counter greater than
zero. In order to drop a reference of an event source and make
sure the associated event source handler function is not called
anymore it is recommended to combine a call of
<function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> with a prior call to
<function>sd_event_source_set_enabled()</function> with
<constant>SD_EVENT_OFF</constant>.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para><function>sd_event_source_unref()</function> always returns
<constant>NULL</constant>.
<function>sd_event_source_ref()</function> always returns the
event source object passed in.</para>
