Alan Jenkins 1c97e2ebf4 man: de-emphasize *_get_session()
Explanation:

"Please note the login session may be limited to a stub
 process or two.  User processes may instead be started from their
 systemd user manager, e.g. GUI applications started using DBus
 activation, as well as service processes which are shared between
 multiple logins of the same user."

The most glaring example being when you run commands from gnome-terminal,
or as you see nowadays, "gnome-terminal-server".

*_get_session() is still currently used (directly or indirectly) by Xorg,
Weston etc. running within the session scope.  That setup is perfectly
functional, although code will be more generally useful if it is able to
run outside the session scope.[1]

Re-order the man pages a bit at the same time.  This is to avoid having the
first and titular entry introduce the session concept, and then immediately
try and persuade you not to use it :).
