>Description:

By default .Rv (Return Value) macro is allowed for 2 and 3 sections only.
It's right. But mdoc.samples.7 is also using that function to show result
of the .Rv macro (see mdoc.samples(7)). We have to possibilities to fix
error message when viewing mdoc.samples(7):
1. Just hardcode its message, it's ugly.
2. Enable .Rv for 7 section, but don't include this change information
to docs and its usage (enable hiddenly).
