Change all incorrect occurrences of it's to its
The documentation (*.xml) in the otp tree has a common grammatical problem, "it's" and "its" are often interchanged. That is annoying for some readers. This commit consists entirely of "it's" -> "its" changes. I went through every .xml file in the tree. If there are any remaining bugs of this type, it's because I missed them, not because I didn't look.
