bug#64016: 29.0.91; Fix some Texinfo markup in manuals

["Basil L. Contovounesios" via "Bug reports for GNU Emacs, the Swiss army knife of text editors" <bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 230 bytes --]

Severity: minor
Tags: patch

I attach a patch intended for emacs-29, which primarily marks up nil/t
in the manuals as @code (I noticed some instances of @var{nil} while
reading the corresponding text).

WDYT?

Thanks,

Basil
