Update awk.html.markdown

Browse Source 
The `gsub` example is incorrect: with pattern `"e+"`, one gets `"m.t m. at th. bar"`. To get  `"m..t m. at th. bar"` as documented, the pattern is just `"e"`. Otherwise we could keep "e+" but change the result.

Also removed an extra dot at the end of a sentence.
