manuals: suppress excess use of "following" word

To simplify the style, replace "Following is" and "Following are"
by "here is" and "here are", sounding more natural.

In some cases, also go further by simplifying "Here are/is xxx"
by "xxx are/is" when the "are" or "is" are not two far at
the end of the sentence.

In some cases too, completely remove the sentence, when
it's redundant with the preceding title.
