3e96616fd4 Add an -S option that allows the user to disable vty switching. It is
implemented using a new VT_LOCKSWITCH ioctl.  Although it is possible
to implement something like this by VT_SETMODEing to VT_PROCESS and
never releasing the vty, that method has a number of downsides, the
biggest of which is that some program has to stay resident for the
lock to be in effect.

Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the

c6519e3e03 Allow user to omit font size specification when loading a font. In addition
the following fixes had been made:

- check the size of the font being loaded and compare it with possible sizes
  to minimise possibility of loading something that is not a fontfile at all
  and turning console screen into garbage;

- prevent buffer overflow (and coredump as a result ) when loading valid
  uuencoded file with size that exceeds allocated buffer;

- correct and improve several error messages.
