- \\ in high-level macro arguments

Currently, \\ is expanded in two situations:

1) macro and string definition (roff.c setstrn())

2) macro argument parsing (mandoc.c mandoc_getarg())

For user defined macros, the second happens in time because of ROFF_REPARSE.

But for standard high-level macros, it only happens after entering the

high level parsers, which is too late because the code doesn't get

back to roff.c roff_res() from that point. Because this requires

distinguishing requests, user-defined macros and standard macros

on the roff_res() level, it is hard to solve without the parser reorg.

- Sequences of multiple man(7) paragraphs (.PP, .IP) interspersed

with .ps and .nf/.fi produce execessive blank lines, see libJudy

and graphics/dcmtk. The parser reorg may help with this.

- trailing whitespace must be ignored even when followed by a font escape,
