[build]: Kill off Ghostscript availability notice.
* m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_GHOSTSCRIPT_AVAILABILITY_NOTICE): Delete.
* configure.ac: Stop interpolating same.
Completes (the revised) "action item D" from <https://lists.gnu.org/\
archive/html/groff/2026-02/msg00004.html>. I've abandoned "action item
B".
