make the documentation a bit more inclusive

Except the name of variables which can't be changed only in the
documentation for obvious reasons and workflow or developement
explanations around the use of the "master" branch which cannot be
replaced with "development" branch instead, most of the non-inclusive
words that appear in https://inclusivenaming.org/word-lists/tier-1/
should have been replaced in this patch.
