- groff_www(7) .MTO and .URL

These macros were used by the GNU grep(1) man page.

The groff_www(7) manual page itself uses them, too.

We should probably *not* add them to mandoc.

Just mentioning this here to keep track of the abuse.

--- HTML issues --------------------------------------------------------

- table of content at the top of HTML (and perhaps ps/pdf) pages

only if there are at least two (or three?) non-standard sections

only if the new option -O toc is given

suggested by Adam Kalisz during EuroBSDCon 2018

- support -O man with two arguments, typically using the first for

a local tree (like the release pages on mandoc.bsd.lv) and the

second for a remote tree (e.g. man.openbsd.org).

Probable syntax: -O man=first;second

Suggested by kristaps@ during EuroBSDCon 2018.

- wrap Sh and Ss content into <div>

************************************************************************

- When a man(1) command returns no result and there was an -S

argument, check the -S argument against the list of valid

architectures and say "Unknown architecture AAA" rather than

"No entry for NNN in the manual" if there is no match.

Requires moving the lists of valid architectures out of

mdoc_validate.c such that they can be used by main.c.
