doc: Remove 'Author' section from man pages

Per the closest thing we have to official man page guidelines [1]:

  Use of an AUTHORS section is strongly discouraged. Generally, it is
  better not to clutter every page with a list of (over time potentially
  numerous) authors; if you write or significantly amend a page, add a
  copyright notice as a comment in the source file.

We already do a good job of tracking authors in the AUTHORS file, so we
can remove this.
