mdoc: move CAVEATS, BUGS and SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS sections to the

bottom of the manpages and order them consistently.

GNU groff doesn't care about the ordering, and doesn't even mention
CAVEATS and SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS as common sections and where to put
them.

.Sh SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS
The
.Fn sprintf
and
.Fn vsprintf
functions are easily misused in a manner which enables malicious users
to arbitrarily change a running program's functionality through
a buffer overflow attack.
Because
.Fn sprintf
and
.Fn vsprintf
assume an infinitely long string,
callers must be careful not to overflow the actual space;
this is often hard to assure.
For safety, programmers should use the
.Fn snprintf
interface instead.
For example:
.Bd -literal
void
foo(const char *arbitrary_string, const char *and_another)
{
char onstack[8];
#ifdef BAD
/*
* This first sprintf is bad behavior. Do not use sprintf!
*/
sprintf(onstack, "%s, %s", arbitrary_string, and_another);
#else
/*
* The following two lines demonstrate better use of
* snprintf().

and_another);

The
.Fn printf
and
.Fn sprintf
family of functions are also easily misused in a manner
allowing malicious users to arbitrarily change a running program's
functionality by either causing the program
to print potentially sensitive data
.Dq "left on the stack" ,
or causing it to generate a memory fault or bus error
by dereferencing an invalid pointer.
.Pp
.Cm %n
can be used to write arbitrary data to potentially carefully-selected
addresses.
Programmers are therefore strongly advised to never pass untrusted strings
as the
.Fa format
argument, as an attacker can put format specifiers in the string
to mangle your stack,
leading to a possible security hole.
This holds true even if the string was built using a function like
.Fn snprintf ,
as the resulting string may still contain user-supplied conversion specifiers
for later interpolation by
.Fn printf .
