[gropdf]: Clarify reduced support scenario.
* font/devpdf/tests/basic-fonts-present.sh: Revise test. Improve
explanation of why we're looking for the gs(1) command in a font
availability test. Prefix diagnostic output with name of test script.
Perform a search for the 'ps' device font descriptions that will work
in more build scenarios (i.e., don't assume an out-of-tree build
taking place in an immediate subdirectory of the source). Distinguish
failure to find the font descriptions from a failure to locate the
'gs' command, skipping the test in both scenarios. Reduce noise in
output.
* m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_CHECK_GROPDF_PROGRAMS): Revise warning issued when
awk and Ghostscript are unavailable; gropdf will not be completely
inoperative. Characterize its reduced function.
Thanks to Deri James in <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/\
groff-commit/2023-02/msg00089.html> for prompting me to take a another
look at this.
