[PATCH] doc: fix style issues in the display of macro optional arguments

Hi all,

I was reading at the documentation of m4_map_args_pair, which reads as
follows:

 -- Macro: m4_map_args_pair (MACRO, [MACRO-END = `macro'], ARG...)
     For every pair of arguments ARG, invoke MACRO with two arguments.
     If there is an odd number of arguments, invoke MACRO-END, which
     defaults to MACRO, with the remaining argument.

The way the default value of MACRO-END is display is wrong.

* doc/autoconf.texi (@dvarv): New.
Use it where optional macro arguments default to other arguments.
