    content: add a note about babl 0.1.82 + some minor fixes.
    
    We don't bump babl requirements because of the meson dependency of
    recent babl which is much too high and would block stable distributions
    from updating GIMP. Let's still make some note to tell people to update
    to latest babl if they can, as it brings interesting improvements.
    
    Also fix repetitions, typos, missing uppercase and other minor errors.
