xfree86: .BI style: monitor section in xorg.conf man page
The xorg.conf manual uses the following convention in most of its sections: bold = text to be copied literally to the config file, italic = a symbolic name to be substituted by a true value. Some configuration keywords seem to have been changed into generic options. Prepending Option to the manual entry swapped the bold-italic logic. This patch restores the convention in the monitor section and consists of -.BI "Option " "\*qPreferredMode\*q " \*qstring\*q +.BI "Option \*qPreferredMode\*q \*q" name \*q modifications. Plus a few minor changes (Modes → Mode) and a typo fix.
