    groff(7): Make style fixes to Unicode section.
    
    * Tighten wording.
    * Write small quantities in running prose as words, not numerals.
    * Use a more conventional term for indicating an immediately-following
      example.
    * Suppress inter-sentence spacing after "e.g.".
    * Fix comma splice.
    * Generally make the language more idiomatic.
