* Man pages: Add -display and -markup to rofi.1

* Man pages: Use the metavariable in -async-pre-read

* Man pages: document the dmenu -w option

* Man pages/help: correct -only-match description

* Man pages/help: -normal-window does not only apply in dmenu mode

Entering the modi as the man page had them would not work

* modi and command names are `backticked`
* rofi is **bold**
* other man pages are **bold(1)**
* Pango is capitalised according to their own website.
* Option arguments are *like1*,*this2*
