Security fix:
The function print_encode() is used both for plain text and for quoted attribute values. Escape the '"' character such that malicious manuals cannot pull off XSS attacks using malformed .Lk, .Mt, .%U, and .UR macros (and maybe others) to trigger the latter case. In the former case, escaping does no harm. Issue found by Sebastien Marie <semarie-openbsd at latrappe dot fr>.
