[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.
