groff(1): Fix style nit.
When setting long- and short-form command-line options as paragraph
tags, list the former first since it can overrun the tag width without
increasing the page length (the line breaks anyway for the subsequent
tag). Prompted by discussion with Alex Colomar.
This is the only man page groff ships needing such revision, since (1)
we generally don't use long options except for `--help` and `--version`;
and (2) we usually dispose of those and any short option synonyms they
have in prose rather than in a tagged paragraph list. But groff(1)'s
special handling of `--version` commands further discussion.
