    [mdoc]: Trivially refactor (`ua` and \[ha]).
    
    * tmac/mdoc/doc-nroff (ua): Define string as `ha` special character, not
      "^".  This is (probably) a matter only of pedantic correctness, as
      this definition takes place only in the "else" block of a conditional
      testing for the "utf8" output device, and no other supported
      nroff-mode device renders "^" surprisingly to ASCII nostalgics.
