[docs]: Minimally document `tag`, `taga` requests.
* doc/groff.texi (Postprocessor Access): * man/groff.7 (Request short reference): Do it. Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62695>. I don't know if we need to keep these. They do much the same thing as `device`, and are implemented nearly identically to each other. They have only one user, the also undocumented "devtag.tmac". One difference is that the `device` request constructs a "macro" (internally to GNU troff), and `tag{,a}` construct strings (from groff's string class, not the C++ standard library's). Possibly the type used for storage of the node contents is intended to address some of the same problems we've seen crop up in issues like Savannah #63074.
