man page: Remove empty lines

As pointed out by @niten94, empty lines in the man page are not just
unnecessary but also cause extra empty lines to be displayed with
alternative `man` implementations, e.g. `mandoc`. To test on Debian,
for example, mandoc's implementation is named `mman` and included in the
`mandoc` package.
