- `--ascii` is now turned on automatically for man output, for
portability. All man output will be escaped to ASCII.
- In T.P.Writers.Groff, `escapeChar`, `escapeString`, and
`escapeCode` now take a boolean parameter that selects
ascii-only output. This is used by the Ms writer for
`--ascii`, instead of doing an extra pass after writing
the document.
- In ms output without `--ascii`, unicode is used whenever
possible (e.g. for double quotes).
- A few escapes are changed: e.g. `\[rs]` instead of `\\` for
backslash, and `\ga]` instead of `` \` `` for backtick.

Now the `write*` functions for Docbook, HTML, ICML, JATS,
Man, Ms, OPML are sensitive to `writerPreferAscii`. Previously
the to-ascii translation was done in Text.Pandoc.App, and
thus not available to those using the writer functions
directly.
In addition, the LaTeX writer is now sensitive to
`writerPreferAscii` and to `--ascii`. 100% ASCII
output can't be guaranteed, but the writer will use
commands like `\"{a}` and `\l` whenever possible,
to avoid emiting a non-ASCII character.
A new unexported module, Text.Pandoc.Groff, has been
added to store functions used in the different groff-based
writers.
