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_CONNECT_TIME - time to connect
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME, double *timep);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a double to receive the total time in seconds from the start
until the connection to the remote host (or proxy) was completed.
When a redirect is followed, the time from each request is added together.
See also the TIMES overview in the curl_easy_getinfo(3) man page.
# %PROTOCOLS%
# EXAMPLE
~~~c
int main(void)
{
CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
CURLcode res;
double connect;
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
if(CURLE_OK == res) {
res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_CONNECT_TIME, &connect);
if(CURLE_OK == res) {
printf("Time: %.1f", connect);
}
}
/* always cleanup */
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
}
}
~~~
# %AVAILABILITY%
