Please review a documentation fix in the `javadoc` man page to document that the `-group` option can be used with packages or modules depending on documented code. 

Although the help output of the `javadoc` tool already included this fact I replaced the abstract term "elements" with "packages or modules" to make it a bit more concrete.
