I decreased the list spacing a bit, but don't want to decrease it
further. Some lists like those on
http://d-programming-language.org/overview.html have wrapped text, and I
prefer the spacing between the bulleted paragraphs. If there is a
strong consensus against my preference I'll change it :)

I have mostly been avoiding changing the content, and I consider
tabs/spaces in BNF blocks to be content, not styling.

I made a couple of changes based on validation but there are obviously
lots to do. It's honestly not very high on my priority list.
