* chktrust.1: Added some details and documented the CAB format
restriction (not supported).
* makecert.1: Added missing options, details for existing options and
removed duplicate options.
* setreg.1: Minor changes.
* signcode.1: Added some details and documented the CAB format
restriction (not supported). Also added a warning when using both a
strongname and an Authenticode signature on a assembly.
