stdnse.print_debug accepts a format string and arguments, making
string.format redundant in calls of this form:
stdnse.print_debug(1, string.format("%s: error", SCRIPT_NAME))
stdnse.print_debug(("length %d"):format(#tab))
These can be rewritten as:
stdnse.print_debug(1, "%s: error", SCRIPT_NAME)
stdnse.print_debug("length %d", #tab)
Clean up some typos and differences. Most have been normalized to
whatever form of the name occurred in the largest number of scripts.

This is the default and can be omitted. Seeing as the value of this
argument was "hardmatched" in 100% of cases, we're better off pretending
the parameter doesn't exist.
