If there is random stuff inside a .Bl block body before the first .It,

do not throw a FATAL error and do not die, but just throw a WARNING
and move the stuff out of the .Bl block.

This bug felt completely 2008-ish; meanwhile, such bugs from the
Kristaps-doesnt-like-syntax-errors-so-lets-just-give-up--Era
are becoming rare, but this was one of the last survivors.

Thanks to bentley@ for reminding me to finally fix this.

-- .Bl -tag followed by a text node preceding the first .It should not
-  throw a FATAL error, but only a normal ERROR.  Putting this into the
-  HEAD of an implicit .It might be cleanest, inserting an implicit .Pp
-  or just dumping the orphan stuff directly into the BODY of the .Bl
-  might be easier to implement, and all options can no doubt be made
-  to yield correct (i.e. groff bug-compatible) rendering.
