gropdf(1): Fix style nits in --pdfver description.
* Set literals in bold, not italics.
* Use `\|` thin space around bar character, not full `\~` spaces.
* Use braces consisently to present otherwise unbracketed exclusive
syntactical choices.
* Use normal, not unbreakable space, in option synopsis; if the user
condfigured a radically short line length, roll with it.
* Break input lines after semicolons.
* Break input lines around multi-word parenthetical phrases.
* Use empty request between sentences.
