    [troff]: Fix spurious "delim" warning.
    
    * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (token::is_usable_as_delimter): Fix spurious
      warning in category "delim" when using a tab character as an escape
      sequence as a delimiter.  AT&T troff allows that, and so has GNU troff
      historically.
    
    Continues commit 39c1176bfa, 25 January.  See Savannah #66686 and
    Savannah #66526.
