Add support for fractional point sizes in ms macros. A value for
PS, VS, FPS, and FVS greater than or equal to 1000 is always divided by 1000. For example, `.nr PS 10250' sets the font size to 10.25p. * tmac/s.tmac (@AU, @AI, par@load-init, par@init, par@reset, NL, PX): Handle fractional point sizes for PS, VS, FPS, and FVS. * tmac/groff_ms.man, docs/groff.texinfo, NEWS: Document it.
