in repository groff.

commit 406654a9ffc58535b0357e9d6c6a1a4722e42248
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
AuthorDate: Sun Dec 12 11:37:57 2021 +1100

    doc/meref.me: Migrate "point size" -> "type size".
    
    * "Point size" remains in mnemonics for package register names.
    * Update prepositions: one is to say "_at_ a given type size" but "_in_
      11-point type".
