After years of deliberation, finally provide a clear recommendation
for hyphens and minus signs in manual pages.
Since there is consensus that a typographically perfect solution is
impossible, let's KISS - just write "-", don't bother with "\-", all
currently relevant manual page formatters can handle "-" reasonably.
