manual: Minor cleanups.

- Mention that OGG/Speex also needs periodic audio file headers, reword
this sentence.

- para_write now understands formats != 16 bit, so remove this restriction also
from the documentation. Also mention that the sample format is being read from
the wav header, if present.

- Typo fix.
