I suspect that the incorrect description of EPERM was copied from
the aa_change_hat man page, where it is possible to see EPERM if the
application is not confined by AppArmor.
This patch corrects the description by documenting that the only
possible way to see EPERM is if a confined application has the
no_new_privs bit set.

It is possible that file descriptors will be revalidated after an
aa_change_profile() but there is a lot of complexity involved that
doesn't need to be spelled out in the man page. Instead, mention that
revalidation is possible but the only way to ensure that file
descriptors are not passed on is to close them.

The statement was meant to convey the difference between aa_change_hat()
and aa_change_profile(). Unfortunately, it read as if there was
something preventing a program from using aa_change_profile() twice to
move from profile A to profile B and back to profile A, even if profiles
A and B contained the necessary rules.

This is a trivial manpage fix that makes pod2man stop yelling at me.

This patch adds --stderr to pod2man to make it report errors, as well as
fixes a few other minor text issues I noticed.
