groff_char(7): Revise copyright notice.
Ratchet back ending year of FSF copyright notice to 2003, reflecting the
date of the last "legally significant"[1] contribution to this file by
anyone who has executed a copyright assignment with the FSF, which was
commit 48615a444, 2003-02-23, by Werner Lemberg.
Add copyright notice for myself. I have never executed copyright
assignment paperwork with the FSF, so my "legally significant"[ibid.]
changes to this file can't be under the FSF's copyright.
