Correct a host of small formatting issues with Texinfo manual (bug #52774)
basics.txi: Move all of the Octave command line option references that begin
with a hyphen to underneath the concept-index entry "options, Octave command"
using the @sortas command, leaving some indentation space with @ @ . Add
a missing @cindex reference for the --eval option and the -W option. Remove
the deprecated -? help option. Move the ~/.octaverc and .octaverc index
entries to "octaverc" via @sortas. Add an index entry for startup.m. Move
the ~/.inputrc index entry to "inputrc" via @sortas. Move the #! index
entry from concept index to operator index, qualifying with "self-contained
script". Move the #, %, #{ and %{ index entries to the operator index
qualifying with "comment marker" or "block comment marker" accordingly.
expr.tex: Move the ":end" index entry to "end" via the @sortas command and
include "end:" as well.
stmt.txi: Change ... and \ index references from @cindex to @opindex and
position near paragraph reference.
xticks.m: Fix a set of three bogus index entries by supplying a missing field
with {} for examples in which the function does not return output.
xticklabels.m: Ditto.
yticks.m: Ditto.
yticklabels.m: Ditto.
zticks.m: Ditto.
zticklabels.m: Ditto.
rticks.m: Ditto.
thetaticks.m: Ditto.
