=head3 and =head4 support plus a few bug fixes.
=head1 Blah C<blah> blah
should now work correctly even if quotes are set to "" (before, the quotes
were confusing some nroff macros), and
=head2 Blah B<blah> blah
should manage not to set the font back to non-bold for the last blah by
using \fP (unfortuately, Solaris 2.6 at least has a major bug in its
handling of \fP so this was more complicated than I'd hoped it would be).
This also includes the previously posted pod2man diff.

* VERSION: podlators 1.05 released.
* scripts/pod2man.PL: Allow pod2man to take multiple pairs of
input and output files on the command line to decrease the time
that it takes to process all of Perl's documentation.
* lib/Pod/Man.pm (textmapfonts): New function, like mapfonts but
without the last change to work around a Solaris 2.6 nroff bug.
(textblock): Use textmapfonts instead of mapfonts.
(cmd_head4): Likewise.
(cmd_item): Likewise.
* lib/Pod/Man.pm (switchquotes): Turned into a method rather than
a static function. Switch \*C` and \*C' sequences from C<> as
well as literal double-quotes if the quote character contains
double quotes. Not doing this was causing weird output on some
systems in some circumstances.
(cmd_head1): Call of switchquotes changed.
(cmd_head2): Likewise.
(cmd_item): Likewise.
* lib/Pod/Man.pm (mapfonts): Use \fP to switch back to the default
font rather than changing back to \fR so that font changes work
correctly in headings using a different font. Sprinkle \fP
through all font changes so that the default font is always the
"previous" font so that the above works.
* lib/Pod/Man.pm (cmd_head3): New function.
(cmd_head4): New function.
* lib/Pod/Text.pm: (cmd_head3): New function.
(cmd_head4): New function.
* lib/Pod/Text.pm (initialize): Change the default quote character
for C<> to be double quotes rather than matched left/right single
quotes.
