    Define fallbacks for `OK` and `u2717` spec chars.
    
    * man/groff_tmac.5.man:
    * src/devices/gropdf/gropdf.1.man: These man pages employ an unusual
      character, U+2717 "BALLOT X".  Define a fallback character for devices
      incapable of rendering that.
    
    * tmac/tty.tmac: Define fallback character for groff `OK` special
      character.
    
    Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?66328>.  Thanks to Bjarni Ingi
    Gislason for the report.
