doc: ref_make_macros: improve language, typos and markup
The literal blocks don't need to be code-blocks, as there is no code to be highlighted. Turn down the inline markup to make the text better readable. A technical term doesn't need to be emphasized every time it occurs. Use semantic newlines where applicable.
