Spelling fixes: top level

This patch fixes various spelling errors in the toplevel directory.
Applied to mainline.

(Debian's lintian package includes a collection of common spelling errors
- those that have been found in Debian package descriptions.  Adapting
this to check for and correct such errors in general text files is
straightforward - and a lot quicker than doing proper spell-checking
(though for the manuals I've done proper spell-checking in the past and
will do so from time to time in the future).)
