Log:
  vt: add three more cp437 mappings for vga textmode

  In UTF-8 locales mandoc uses a number of characters outside of the Basic
  Latin group, e.g. from general punctuation or miscellaneous mathematical
  symbols, and these rendered as ? in text mode.

  This change adds (char, replacement, code point, description):

      ? - U+2013 En Dash
      ? < U+27E8 Mathematical Left Angle Bracket
      ? > U+27E9 Mathematical Right Angle Bracket

  This change addresses some common cases; there are others that still
  need to be added after a more thorough review.
