[build]: Detangle pdfroff, gropdf config (1/2).
* m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_GROPDF_DEPENDENCIES_CHECK): Add `AC_REQUIRE`ment on `GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK`. Per discussion with Deri James, if _either_ Ghostscript or the URW fonts are avilable, gropdf will be fully functional, consequent to commit d5515, 22 June. Drop dependency on awk; it is used only at configuration time (in an Autoconf macro) and since Savannah #62775 was resolved (19 September), it has not been strictly necessary. (It is useful for searching more locations for URW fonts, but several others are searched even if it is absent.) Stop populating notice text here, instead moving it... (GROFF_GROPDF_PROGRAM_NOTICE): ...here, since it no longer needs to be dynamically constructed. Continues <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63808>. Thanks to Deri James for the continued discussion.

`GROFF_GROPDF_DEPENDENCIES_CHECK` to generalize for greater
accuracy in forthcoming change.
