Misc man page changes (#535)
* Manpage: review the window section
* rename "Window Mode" to "Window switcher settings" for more
consistency
* put `-window-command` in the correct section
* move the window switcher settings section up
* Manpage: minor markup/syntax fix
* Manpage: mention `-show keys` in `-show` section
* Manpage: fix some markup problems
Some parts were over-indented and interpreted as verbatim blocks
* Manpage: note about dmenu async mode disabling
Stay voluntarily vague about the exact list of confliction options to
avoid keeping it in sync with the code
