Revert "[troff]: \X maps some basic Latin chars to specs."
This reverts commit dcae60b0fb1ad3fa3314fdfdbecb973961a40410.
Reverting the change better simulates copy mode, which is eventually
where we want to take `\X`'s interpretation of its delimited argument.
There's simply no convenient infrastructure for that in "input.cpp" yet.
Output drivers that need to distinguish characters in device extension
commands destined for "document text" from those intended for
"application text" (or some other external purpose, like constructing a
shell command for execution) have to use out-of-band means to achieve
this distinction. Documentation of recommended practices for achieving
this are being hashed out and will soon, it is hoped, be documented.
