gnu: groff: Adjust relocatability snippet for 1.22.4.
This commit does three things. It reverts 73b2ce87 ("gnu: groff-minimal:
Disable relocatability."), re-applies f57693e1 ("gnu: groff: Disable
relocatability."), and finally adjusts the substitution for changes since
0559a4c2 ("gnu: groff: Update to 1.22.4.").
* gnu/packages/groff.scm (groff-minimal)[arguments]: Move relocatibility
snippet ...
(groff)[arguments]: ... here. Don't delete relocation.cpp and adjust file
name.
