doc: fix mispellings and formatting

* General scan for misspellings, "smart quotes", and formatting errors
  missed during regular review. Also removed used of "please".

* Fix old XML examples that had desc="..." comments. These comments were
  moved to to xsd files instead of being in the XML files themselves.
