CVS nuke groff/mm

CVS import the mm macros from the current groff into contrib/mm-macros on
a VENDOR branch (name of which is the author of the mm macros).  Add the
authors current offering on the same vendor branch.  Make any FreeBSD
hacks to mm and then mundge the Makefiles in gnu/usr.bin/groff to install
the updated mm macros rather than the one you nuked from groff/mm.

This way would make it clear the division in maintance and authorship of
the macros.
