Jan Engelhardt 3b3d7d069d doc: balance C indirections in function prototypes
Shift the asterisks in the documentation's prototypes such that they
are consistent among each other. Use the right side to match what is
used in source code.

Addendum to commit v209~82.

<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_realtime_usec()</function>
gets the realtime (wallclock) timestamps of the first
and last entries accessible in the journal. It takes
three arguments: the journal context object and two
pointers to 64-bit unsigned integers to store the
timestamps in. The timestamps are in microseconds
since the epoch,
i.e. <constant>CLOCK_REALTIME</constant>. Either one
of the two timestamp arguments may be passed as
<constant>NULL</constant> in case the timestamp is not
needed, but not both.</para>
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_monotonic_usec()</function>
gets the monotonic timestamps of the first and last
entries accessible in the journal. It takes three
arguments: the journal context object, a 128-bit
identifier for the boot, and two pointers to 64-bit
unsigned integers to store the timestamps. The
timestamps are in microseconds since boot-up of the
specific boot,
i.e. <constant>CLOCK_MONOTONIC</constant>. Since the
monotonic clock begins new with every reboot it only
defines a well-defined point in time when used
together with an identifier identifying the boot, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_id128_get_boot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information. The function will return the
timestamps for the boot identified by the passed boot
ID. Either one of the two timestamp arguments may be
passed as <constant>NULL</constant> in case the
timestamp is not needed, but not both.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para><function>sd_journal_get_cutoff_realtime_usec()</function>
and

return 1 on success, 0 if not suitable entries are in
the journal or a negative errno-style error code.</para>
