[troff]: Fix Savannah #68017.
* src/roff/troff/number.cpp (is_valid_term): Reintroduce warning in
category "tab" when a tab character starts a numeric expression.
Lacking it caused the formatter to throw a huge number of error
diagnostics (with no harmful effect on formatting, thus unproductively
alarming the user) when springing traps in Matt Bishop's vintage "mn"
macro package.
