46f76ca8b8 docs: avoid large Table of Contents at top of HTML version of manual
Texinfo-6.8 (that was used to build the docs of nano-5.9) changed
the way the @contents command is processed for HTML output, with as
result a detailed table of contents at the start of the HTML page.
That is ugly and too much detail.  To avoid that, produce a table
of contents only when generating output meant for printing.

This fixes https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61344.

Bug existed since version 5.9.

3a09577e0c tweaks: replace the obscure @* with the slightly clearer @sp
What @* does is guesswork when you don't use Texinfo regularly.
That the "sp" in the @sp command refers to vertical space is not
very clear either, but the command is used on nearby lines too,
so better use it more.

Also, improve two wordings and fix a four-year old typo.
