pic(1), tbl(1): Parallelize wording with eqn(1).
This tightens pic(1)'s claim regarding what can accept its output; it no longer implies that any troff can interpret it. The output does seem to largely avoid groff-specific syntax or extensions, apart from stroke and fill color selection. It's not clear to me if that defeats the processing of GNU pic output by, say, DWB or Plan 9 troff, so until we know, make the narrower claim.
