This change aligns it with other groff output drivers, and makes it
work correctly with "groff -vX".

+---------

+* afmtodit now recognizes a '-q' option to suppress diagnostics
+ reporting duplicate mappings in favor of a count thereof, and the
+ "BuildFoundries" script uses it. Recent versions of the URW fonts
+ have tons of duplicate mappings (for groff's purposes) and to our
+ knowledge these are all harmless.
+
+* grog no longer supports the `--ligatures` and `--run` options.
+ Simulate the former (which was specific to the "pdf" output device)
+ with the option sequence "-P -U -P y", and the latter by using the
+ command substitution feature of your shell; see section "Examples" of
+ groff(1).
