  • generate AVAILABILITY manpage sections automatically - for consistent wording

  • allows us to double-check against other documumentation (symbols-in-versions etc)

  • enables proper automation/scripting based on this data

  • lots of them were wrong or missing in the manpages

  • several of them repeated (sometimes mismatching) backend support info

Add test 1488 to verify "added-in" version numbers against symbols-in-versions.
