Change the rendering of the .Ux macro from "UNIX" to "Unix", purely for compatibility with groff 1.23. Not a big deal because this macro is deprecated anyway. The decision to change this was made in groff because two AT&T Bell Labs veterans, Doug McIlroy and Meg McRoberts, recalled that "fairly early on, we in the Unix lab began to treat Unix as a proper noun, but the lawyers had trademarked the uppercase name and got their way in many publications." https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2015-01/msg00026.html https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2015-01/msg00029.html This cange corresponds to groff commit 8dcc3aad gbranden@ Sep 7, 2022 [mdoc]: Render `Ux` macro as "Unix", in mixed case.
