doc/tmac.n: Fix erroneous lines.

I'm mindful of the license here, but suspect that these lines crept in
after Matt Bishop's time.  Text lines in a macro package can be
insidious because they cause formatting operations to start even in the
absence of an input document.  The forthcoming groff 1.24 has a new
diagnostic to help catch these situations.

The groff Texinfo manual says:

     A '\"' comment on a line by itself is treated as a blank line,
     because after eliminating the comment, that is all that remains.

          Test
          \" comment
          Test
              => Test
              =>
              => Test

     To compensate, it is common to combine the empty request with the
     comment escape sequence as '.\"', causing the input line to be
     ignored.

Fixes:
