Update HISTORY and AUTHORS sections for cut(1) and paste(1)

In an e-mail Brian Walden wrote that:

"GWRL stands for Gottfried W. R. Luderer, the author of cut(1) and
paste(1), probably around 1978. Those came either from PWB or USG,
as he worked with, or for, Berkley Tague. Thus they made their way
into AT&T commercial UNIX, first into System III and the into System
V, and that's why they are missing from early BSD releases as they
didn't get into Research UNIX until the 8th Edition."

So update the HISTORY and AUTHORS sections for cut(1) and paste(1).

Fix confusing example in paste(1)

Paste's man page contains an example for a reimplementation of
nl(1). This example uses the command line
sed = myfile | paste -s -d '\t\n' - -
in order to concatenate consecutive lines with an intervening tab.

However, the way the example uses the switches -s and -d and two `dash`
input files is redundant. There are in fact two equivalent but simpler
ways to achieve the desired result:
sed = myfile | paste -s -d '\t\n' -
uses the same style as the previous example, while
sed = myfile | paste - -
is arguably even simpler and illustrates the final sentence of the
DESCRIPTION.

Renumber copyright clause 4

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

paste(1) appeared at least as early as 32v.

Add another example for using paste(1) since tjr seemed to want more examples
on IRC. This one is to create a colon seperated list of directories from
find(1), suitable for use in the shell's PATH.

Add an EXAMPLES section with three examples. Document the problem with
multibyte characters and the -d option in a BUGS section.

Cross-reference between lam(1) and paste(1). Add a STANDARDS section to
lam(1) indicating that paste(1) is a standard way to do some of the same
things.

Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

.\" $Id$
.\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.
