rGfb144a705792: pw(8): Brace the name-or-id synopsis so it matches the code
Summary

An unbraced pipe list made -n look like it could take a uid (or gid).
Use braces for a single choice of name or id, and keep -u newuid /
-g newgid on the name invocation only. Drop the USER/GROUP OPTIONS
sentences that said -n could be a numeric id.
