Change the behaviour of `-v' so that, e.g., stepping a month back

on March 31 won't take you to March 2 or 3 (now the result will be the last day of February.) In general, now stepping by months from the last days of the current month A will take you to the very last day of the target month B if B is shorter than A. The previous version would just step to March 31 and rely on mktime(3) to correct the date. Despite its simplicity, such way was counter-intuitive to users and caused pain to shell script writers.

DESCRIPTION was not updated for the new SYNOPSIS.

Give date(1) a much better SYNOPSIS section which is useful as more than

decoration. Further improvements are welcome, but at least this is a separate of the various modes of operation date has, as well as sectioning off the two deprecated options for settimeofday(tz) that don't even apply to actual operation of date as such, anyway.
