[groff]: Fix portability problem in test script.
* src/roff/groff/tests/lj4-device-smoke-test.sh: Pass `-P -pletter`
arguments to groff, to compel output driver to use U.S. letter paper
format. Fixes test failure in environments where this paper format is
not the default.
Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?67927>. Thanks to Bjarni Ingi
Gislason for the report and Deri James for the analysis and solution.
