docs: fix linting issues due to incorrect relative section order
Re-order the sections of a few manual pages to be consistent with the entirety of the rest of our documentation. This allows us to remove the just-added whitelist of "bad" order from lint-man-section-order.perl. I'm doing that this way around so that code will be easy to dig up if we'll need it in the future. I've intentionally not added some other sections such as EXAMPLES to the list of known sections. If we were to add that we'd find some out of order. Perhaps we'll want to order those consistently as well in the future, at which point whitelisting some of them might become handy again.
