* mandoc: Re-classify the roff(7) \r (reverse line feed) escape sequence

Log Message:
-----------
Re-classify the roff(7) \r (reverse line feed) escape sequence
from "ignore" to "unsupported" because when an input file uses it,
mandoc(1) is likely to significantly misformat the output,
usually showing parts of the output in a different order
than the author intended.

Modified Files:
--------------
    mandoc:
        roff.7
        roff_escape.c
    mandoc/regress/roff/esc:
        Makefile

Added Files:
-----------
    mandoc/regress/roff/esc:
        r.in
        r.out_ascii
        r.out_lint
