[Bug 1451156] [NEW] usage examples in man bonnie++ don't work

[Karl-Philipp Richter]

Public bug reported:

The example for multiple processes should read

    bonnie++ -p3
    bonnie++ -y s > out1 & # requires bonnie++ -pN to be run
    bonnie++ -y s > out2 &
    bonnie++ -y s > out3 &

because `bonnie++ -y` doesn't work alone and it's not clear from the
example that the commands need to be run in order (although it's clear
from the manpage).
