Milan Broz 360f85dde7 man: Grammar and simple stylistic fixes.
This is based mainly on Grammarly.

It unifies man pages to at least some level of grammar,
so later we can focus on adding more readable content.

== Name
cryptsetup-bitlkDump - dump the header information of a BITLK (BitLocker compatible) device
== SYNOPSIS
*cryptsetup _bitlkDump_ [<options>] <device>*
== DESCRIPTION
Dump the header information of a BITLK (BitLocker compatible) device.
If the --dump-volume-key option is used, the BITLK device volume key is dumped instead of header information.
You have to provide a password or keyfile to dump the volume key.
Beware that the volume key can be used to decrypt the data stored in the container without a passphrase.
This means that if the volume key is compromised, the whole device has to be erased to prevent further access.
Use this option carefully.
*<options>* can be [--dump-volume-key, --volume-key-file, --key-file, --keyfile-offset, --keyfile-size, --timeout].
