groff_me(7): Move roff macros into separate table.
...that is, the old roff(1) compatibility macros (from before Ossanna's
"new roff", which appeared ~1973). roff(1) stuck around beyond
through Unix Version 7 in 1979, appearing in 2.9BSD and all the way
through Tenth Edition Research Unix, possibly because it was smaller on
memory-constrained machines and/or because AT&T/Western Electric
licensed nroff and troff separately [at least to some customers] as the
"Documenter's Workbench" product).
