description:
make(1): improve grouping of the Lst functions

Lst_IsEmpty does not belong in the "create and destroy" group, but in
"query information without modifying anything".

The functions named LstNode_* all belong together.  They do not provide
much abstraction, but still they restrict the API and hide a few struct
fields that are only used internally by Lst_Open/Lst_Close and
Lst_ForEach.

Use consistent wording in the documentation of the functions (list,
node, datum).
