[PATCH 30/42] man/curs_color.3x: Fix content and style nits.


From: G. Branden Robinson
Subject: [PATCH 30/42] man/curs_color.3x: Fix content and style nits.
Date: Sat, 16 Dec 2023 11:47:03 -0600

Content:
* Declare type of parameter to `PAIR_NUMBER()` macro in synopsis.
* Respell same parameter as `attr`, rather than `attrs`.  An integer is
  still a singular item even if you can decompose it with bitwise
  operators.

Style:
* Describe macros in the same sequence they appear in the synopsis.
