blacklist: Avoid duplicate manual pages in METALOG
Previously, blacklist man pages were just a symlink to their blocklist counterpart, this in turn installed blocklist man pages twice, and resulted in a duplicate error when running metalog_reader.lua -c.
Take advantage of the duplication to document nuances in blacklist, such as the fact that it uses the new database and socket name (blocklist). Also, note that it has been renamed to blocklist. In the future, it will help to document its deprecation.

blocklist: Revert upstream commit ddf6d71
Upstream commit ddf6d71 ("implement BLOCKLIST_BAD_USER as a "one-count" failure") introduced BLOCKLIST_BAD_USER with a one-count failure mechanism. BLOCKLIST_AUTH_FAIL was implemented with a two-count failure mechanism. Since we have been utilizing BLOCKLIST_AUTH_FAIL, the number of failed attempts now doubles towards the maximum limit (nfails), giving system administrators the impression that the number of failed authentication attempts is inaccurate.
Revert this commit until a consensus has been reached. We do not want to introduce yet another breaking change with the renaming of the library.
