CURLINFO: remove 'get' and 'get the' from each short desc
The short descriptions describe the data each info retrieves. The info
itself does not 'get' the data.

This simplifies and shortens the descriptions and make them more
consistent.

# NAME
CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE - last response code
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE, long *codep);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a long to receive the last received HTTP, FTP, SMTP or LDAP
(OpenLDAP only) response code. This option was previously known as
CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE in libcurl 7.10.7 and earlier. The stored value is zero if
no server response code has been received.
Note that a proxy's CONNECT response should be read with
CURLINFO_HTTP_CONNECTCODE(3) and not this.
# %PROTOCOLS%
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(res == CURLE_OK) {
long response_code;
curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_RESPONSE_CODE, &response_code);
}
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
~~~
# NOTES
The former name, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE, was added in 7.4.1. Support for SMTP
responses added in 7.25.0, for OpenLDAP in 7.81.0.
# %AVAILABILITY%
# RETURN VALUE
curl_easy_getinfo(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.
CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see
libcurl-errors(3).
