ms: Cease warning level manipulation.
Stop ms macro package from manipulating warnings.
* tmac/s.tmac: Remove code block that attempted to enable all
warnings "only if none are given on the command line". It did this by
simply comparing the value of the warn register (\n[.warn]) against
the default value; but of course, a user could specify -w options that
exactly matched the default and the test would not be able to tell,
causing puzzling and undesired behavior. Furthermore, the hard-coded
default was out of date and did not correspond to recent releases of
groff. If you want all warnings on, use the ".warn" request with no
arguments in your ms document or pass "-w w" to groff (see troff(1) or
the Texinfo manual for more on warnings).
Thanks to Bjarni Ingi Gislason for bringing this issue to our attention.
