Documentation: fix various repeat word typos
Inspired by 24966cd982 ("doc: fix repeated words", 08-09-2019), I ran "egrep -R "\<([a-zA-Z]+)\> \<\1\>" ./Documentation/*" to find current cases of repeated words such as "the the" that were quite clearly typos. There were many false positives reported, such as "really really" or valid uses of "that that" which I left alone.
