Improve the Emacs manual's "Misc" node
* doc/emacs/misc.texi (Gnus): A more descriptive section name. (Invoking emacsclient): Mention how to avoid errors when there's no Emacs server. (EWW, Embedded WebKit Widgets): Now subsections under "Hyperlinking and Web Navigation Features". (Amusements): Add "games" to the section name. Suggested by Alex Branham <alex.branham@gmail.com> in emacs-manual-bugs@gnu.org. * doc/emacs/emacs.texi (Top): Adjust the top-level menus to the above changes. * doc/lispref/os.texi (Security Considerations): Fix typos.
