ref-manual: remove semicolons from *PROCESS_COMMAND variables

In nanbield these are no longer needed - spaces are sufficient.
The code still handles any semicolons (replacing them with spaces before
interpreting the value), but let's avoid people adding them from now on
in case we decide to change that in future.
