    groff_me(7): Fix bad URL in comment.
    
    Two years ago, commit ef25e6a7 added a quote to tmac/groff_me.7.man
    sourced to the URL
    https://minnie.tuhs.org//pipermail/tuhs/2018-November/015412.html.  Even
    with the extraneous / removed, this URL today returns a 404; the correct
    URL now is
    https://minnie.tuhs.org/pipermail/tuhs/2018-November/017033.html.
    
    This could mean one of two things:
    
        The URL was mispasted into the groff_me.7.man source
        The URL has changed since 2018
    
    The former seems far less likely, but is also the preferable
    explanation, because the latter tells us that URLs to that archive are
    not guaranteed to be stable (ironic, for a site archiving discussion
    about preserving electronic history), and the interface does not appear
    to offer a permalink.
