[bug #51397] [PATCH] tty.tmac: Add characters \[la] and \[ra]

[Ingo Schwarze]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #51397 (project groff):

Please just close the ticket as invalid.

These two character escapes are already defined for all terminal devices:

- for ascii, in font/devascii/R.proto
- for EBCDIC, in font/devcp1047/R.proto
- for UTF-8, in src/libs/libgroff/glyphuni.cpp

Bjarni himself already answered your question in comment #1 and said there is
nothing to fix.
