command-line arguments are no longer passed via the unnamed buffer, but via special Q-registers ^Ax
* The unnamed buffer is also used for reading from --stdin, so you couldn't practically combine
--stdin with passing command-line arguments to macros.
* The old approach of passing command-line arguments via lines in the
unnamed buffer was flawed anyway as it wouldn't work with filenames containing LF.
This is just a very ancient feature, written when there weren't even long Q-reg names in SciTECO.
* You can now e.g. pipe into SciTECO and edit what was read interactively, e.g. `dmesg | sciteco -i`.
You can practically use SciTECO as a pager.
* htbl.tes is now a command-line filter (uses -qio).
* grosciteco.tes reads Troff intermediate code from stdin, so we no longer need
"*.intermediate" temporary files.
* added a getopt.tes test case to the testsuite.
* This change unfortunately breaks most macros accepting command-line arguments,
even if they used getopt.tes.
It also requires updating ~/.teco_ini - see fallback.teco_ini.
