Cobol, Libgcobol: Correct Typographical Errors in Various Files

Typos are fixed across multiple files in the Cobol compiler and runtime library, improving code quality and readability.

This commit addresses typographical errors found in various files within the Cobol compiler and its runtime library, libgcobol. Specifically, corrections were made in compare.cc, Make-lang.in, except.cc, genapi.cc, gengen.cc, gengen.h, genutil.cc, lexio.cc, messages.cc, parse_ante.h, structs.cc, symbols.cc, symbols.h, util.cc in the Cobol compiler, and README, charmaps.cc, common-defs.h, gcobolio.h, gfileio.cc, gmath.cc, inspect.cc, intrinsic.cc, libgcobol.cc, valconv.cc, xmlparse.cc in libgcobol. These improvements enhance code readability and maintainability.

In Details

The Cobol compiler and libgcobol provide the necessary tools to compile and execute Cobol programs. These components handle parsing, code generation, and runtime support for Cobol applications. Correcting typos improves the overall quality and understandability of the Cobol compiler and runtime library.

For Context

GCC includes a compiler for the Cobol programming language. The libgcobol library provides runtime support for Cobol programs compiled with GCC. This commit corrects typos in both the Cobol compiler and the libgcobol library, improving the quality and readability of the code.
