doc/groff.texi.in: Improve \n[.{x,y,Y}] example.
A silver lining of the recent security release is that it gave us
our first versioning triple since 1.22.4 (December 2018) with values all
distinct and nonzero. "Nonzero" is a valuable trait, because a
*roff formatter that doesn't implement the `.Y` register creates it upon
interpolation--with a zero value.
