#4371: Use consistent verb form in one-line function descriptions

Comment (by mdavis):
Dan, any preference for which verb form to use?
I did a very brief scan of other docs, but the results are inconclusive.
The OGC SFS 99-049 uses "Returns", while the Postgres documentation seems
to mostly use "Return" (e.g. see the [https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11
/functions-string.html string functions doc]).
My leaning is towards "Returns" etc.
