[PATCH 47/61] Spell "Unix" in mixed case and without type size changes.

[G. Branden Robinson]

This is the correct convention, as averred by Bell Labs Unix alumni Doug
McIlroy and Meg McRoberts. See
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2015-01/msg00026.html> and
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2015-01/msg00029.html>.

* man/ncurses.3x:
* man/scr_dump.5:
* man/term.5:
* man/term.7:
* man/terminfo.tail:
* man/tset.1: Do it.  Also pluralize it as "Unices".
