man*/: srcfix
[Clean up in preparation for "MR sed".] Drop spurious, nilpotent uses of *roff `\c` escape sequence. Quoting groff_man_style(7): \c End a text line without inserting space or attempting a break. Normally, if filling is enabled, the end of a text line is treated like a space; an output line _may_ be broken there (if not, an adjustable space is inserted); if filling is disabled, the line _will_ be broken there, as in .EX/.EE examples. The next line is interpreted as usual and can include a macro call (contrast with \newline). \c is useful when three font styles are needed in a single word, as in a command synopsis.
