Reorganize zfs(8) man page into sections
Most subcommands got their own manpages (e.g. create). Some related commands grouped into a single manpage and symlinks created (e.g. set, get, and inherit). I did this when topics were either too short to warrant their own file or so interrelated that a user would want to refer between commands in the same file. Corrected .Sx internal references to .Xr cross refs; lots of .Sx references from when text was all in zfs.8 needed to be changed to .Xr zfs-$SUBCOMMAND 8 cross references. Divided subcommand list in zfs(8) into sections of related functionality. This required writing new descriptions for some commands. Preserved ".Os Linux", `.Os` macro parsing behavior differs between mandoc from the "BSD" mandoc package (available on Ubuntu) and man from Ubuntu's man-db package, which calls groff to format the manpages. Groff handles the `.Os` macro differently and wrongly, defaulting it to "BSD" in `/usr/share/groff/*/tmac/mdoc/doc-common`, instead of getting the default from `uname`. A future set of changes will introduce build-time preprocessing of manpages for platform-specific documentation and can insert the correct operating system name. Added SEE ALSO sections, the newly-divided zfs-*.8 subcommand man pages needed their own SEE ALSO sections pointing to related subcommands and, in some cases, documentation from other packages (e.g. zfs-share.8).

+.Sh NAME
+.Nm zfs Ns Pf - Cm rollback
+.Nd Roll back the given dataset to a previous snapshot.

+.Bl -tag -width ""
+.It Xo
+.Nm
+.Cm rollback
+.Op Fl Rfr
+.Ar snapshot
+.Xc
+When a dataset is rolled back, all data that has changed since the snapshot is
+discarded, and the dataset reverts to the state at the time of the snapshot.
+By default, the command refuses to roll back to a snapshot other than the most
+recent one.
+In order to do so, all intermediate snapshots and bookmarks must be destroyed by
+specifying the
+.Fl r
+option.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl rR
+options do not recursively destroy the child snapshots of a recursive snapshot.
+Only direct snapshots of the specified filesystem are destroyed by either of
+these options.
+To completely roll back a recursive snapshot, you must rollback the individual
+child snapshots.
+.Bl -tag -width "-R"
+.It Fl R
+Destroy any more recent snapshots and bookmarks, as well as any clones of those
+snapshots.
+.It Fl f
+Used with the
+.Fl R
+option to force an unmount of any clone file systems that are to be destroyed.
+.It Fl r
+Destroy any snapshots and bookmarks more recent than the one specified.
