doc/*.6: Use typographer's double quotes

     • When and how should I use quotation marks?

       ... groff, Heirloom Doctools troff, neatroff, and mandoc support
       all of the special characters \[oq], \[cq], \[lq], \[rq], \[aq],
       and \[dq] described in subsection “Portability” above.  DWB, Plan
       9, and Solaris troffs do not.  Interpolating the strings \*(lq
       and \*(rq portably yields directional double quotation marks, if
       available, in all these formatters (though neatroff does not
       supply a man macro package), but they cannot reliably be used in
       macro arguments.
