m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_URW_FONTS_NOTICE): Clarify.
* m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_URW_FONTS_NOTICE): Adapt wording of notice to presence and identity of Ghostscript interpreter command. Clarify that it is gropdf(1) specifically that traverses the Ghostscript search path reported by its "-h" option. Continues <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63808>. Thanks to Deri James for the ongoing discussion.
