Polish the web page for the 1.12.2 release:
* Manuals: Alphabetically sort "eqn" before "man". * Downstream: List explicit downstream versions. Yes, keeping this up to date causes minimal work, but i consider it worth the effort. * List all three places DragonFly scattered its mandoc build system to. * News: Polish the wording. * Note that groff is GPLv3, and remove the wrong claim that it's all GPL. * Assert my Copyright.
