Italic/bold fixes in man pages.
...
Two places that should have been .B or .I were .M, which of
course is an error.
So fix these and that the opportunity to be more consistent
with highlighting of "mdadm". Make it always italic except when
used as a literal example, then bold.

Add --export option to --detail to use key=value pairs.

udev likes to get information about a device as key=value pairs so it
can create disk/by-id links etc. So add --export flag which causes
the output of --detail to easily parsable.

Hyphens and Other Manpage Typography, 4/4: literal ASCII hyphens.
...
From: Peter Samuelson <peter@p12n.org>
nroff formats "-" as the very short hyphen used for hyphenated terms
and for splitting a word across two lines. When you want a literal
ASCII "-", like for typing on a command line, you're supposed to use
"\-" instead.
Yeah, it sounds pedantic, but it actually makes a difference. With
modern Unicode-capable terminals, "man" actually renders these with
different characters, so if you try to search for "--create" in your
favorite pager, you won't find it unless the nroff source says
"\-\-create". This discrepancy doesn't generally show up with
non-Unicode terminals.
