    man pages: Remove unncessary material.
    
    * src/preproc/tbl/tbl.1.man: Stop advising people to use
      adjustment-altering requests to bracket tables to cheaply set the
      alignment of text blocks ("T{", "T}") in table entries.  This is bad
      advice for man pages (it was overriding -dAD=l to force full
      justification on after a table in groff_ms(7)).  Adjustment requests
      can be embedded inside text blocks anyway, and you don't even have to
      remember to undo them.
    
    * src/roff/groff/groff.1.man: Remove novice-oriented material
      introducing the concept of man page section numbers and man(1) usage
      advice.  This is not appropriate here; intro(1) is the proper place.
