Greetings:
Some man page headers and footers are not highlighted properly. Examples
on Debian 10 include "man last" and "man ufw".
This commit changes the highlighting rules to always highlight the first
and last lines, regardless of their form. This means that man pages
that look like (in the case of "man last")...
LAST, LASTB(1) User Commands LAST, LASTB(1)
... will still be highlighted correctly. Same goes for the footer.
