Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 3a54a15760 man: use same header for all files
The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this
is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere.

$ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n  "http^gms' man/*.xml

<title>Description</title>
<para><command>systemd-logind</command> is a system service that
manages user logins. It is responsible for:</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>Keeping track of users and sessions, their processes and their idle state. This is implemented by
allocating a systemd slice unit for each user below <filename>user.slice</filename>, and a scope unit below it
for each concurrent session of a user. Also, a per-user service manager is started as system service instance of
<filename>user@.service</filename> for each logged in user.</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>Generating and managing session IDs. If auditing is available and an audit session ID is already set for
a session, then this ID is reused as the session ID. Otherwise, an independent session counter is
used.</para></listitem>
