[bug #66174] [mdoc] `Bl` macro's `-width` option poorly documented

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #66174 (group groff):

Oh, I should have mentioned that on top of quotation marks performing no type
conversion, they are removed by the macro call process.  The `Bl` macro *never
sees* the quotation marks supplied at the call site.  Quotation marks are for
getting spaces into a macro argument.  "1234567890123" had none in the first
place.
