Simplify wording: `the bugpoint tool' can just become `bugpoint'.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
The B<bugpoint> tool narrows down the source of problems in LLVM tools and passes.
It can be used to debug three types of failures: optimizer crashes,
miscompilations by optimizers, or bad native code generation (including problems
in the static and JIT compilers). It aims to reduce large test cases to small,
useful ones. For example, if B<gccas> crashes while optimizing a file, it will
identify the optimization (or combination of optimizations) that causes the
crash, and reduce the file down to a small example which triggers the crash.
