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.

CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_SSL_VERIFYRESULT,
                           long *result);

  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {

    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");

    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    if(res) {
      printf("error: %s\n", curl_easy_strerror(res));
      curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
      return 1;
    }

    res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_SSL_VERIFYRESULT,
                            &verifyresult);
    if(!res) {
      printf("The peer verification said %s\n",
             (verifyresult ? "bad" : "fine"));
