mdoc(7) police: Tidy up the syscall language.

Stop calling system calls "function calls".

Use "The .Fn system call" a-la "The .Nm utility".

When referring to a non-BSD implementation in
the HISTORY section, call syscall a function,
to be safe.

Refer to chflags(2) instead of chflags(1) (since we're a section 2
manual page), fix capitalization, and remove chflags reference from
SEE ALSO since the only time it's referenced is with an .Xr, anyway.

Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
