ipcs(1): misc improvements

Sort options. Use -compact lists for compact lists.

We already use .Sh CAVEATS in many manpages, so use that instead of
artisanal (and, IMHO, sematically wrong) "restrictions".

Use consistent order for the "message queues, shared memory segments,
and semaphores" mantra (that alo matches the order the program prints
them in).

The times are printed without the leading zero for the hours, so it's
%k, not %H. $TZ takes precedence over /etc/localtime.


# 1.21 15-Nov-2025 jschauma

Document the output format of ipcs(1).

This addresses the note in the Bugs section about the incompleteness
of this manual page that has existed since revision 1.2 (1994).
