[PATCH] Spelling fixes for Documentation/

The attached patch fixes the following spelling errors in Documentation/
        - double "the"
        - Several misspellings of function/functionality
        - infomation
        - memeory
        - Recieved
        - wether
and possibly others which I forgot ;-)
Trailing whitespaces on the same line as the typo are also deleted.
