#4371: Use consistent verb form in one-line function descriptions
---------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  dbaston  |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  defect   |     Status:  new
 Priority:  low      |  Milestone:  PostGIS 2.5.3
Component:  postgis  |    Version:  2.4.x
 Keywords:           |
---------------------+---------------------------
 The one-line function descriptions that appear in the help docs are a
 mixture of imperatives

   ST_NPoints — Return the number of points (vertexes) in a geometry.


 Or descriptions

   ST_NDims — Returns coordinate dimension of the geometry as a small int.
 Values are: 2,3 or 4.

 These should be made consistent (always "return" or always "returns")
