    man page: Remove section describing BACKLIGHT_CONTROL property.
    
    This apparently no longer exists in a KMS world, so remove it from the
    documentation.

    man page: Rename PANEL_FITTING to "scaling mode".
    
    The old UMS name was PANEL_FITTING while the new KMS name is "scaling mode".
    
    Fixes bug #25606.

    man page: Add additional indentation for some output configuration options.
    
    The BACKLIGHT_CONTROL and PANEL_FITTING options appear in a list, and
    then each contain a sub-list of sub-options. Use indentation to make
    this structure more apparent to the reader.
