Landon Curt Noll a996f8d2b8 improved indentation and whitespace for markdown code blocks

All code blocks in markdown have been intended by at least 4 spaces.

We add `--tab-stop=8` to all `pandoc(1)` executions in order to set
a better tab stop indentation, especially for tab intended code blocks.

Changed `bin/pandoc-wrapper.sh` VERSION from "1.5.3 2024-03-26"
to "1.6 2024-03-31".

Fixed `1991/brnstnd/sorta.README.md` so that the sorta code
is code blocks.

Removed unneeded paragraph group in copyright in `inc/footer.default.html`.

Fixed excess whitespace after list Author on entry `index.html` page.

Changed `bin/output-index-author.sh` VERSION from "1.5.2 2024-03-26"
to "1.6 2024-03-31".

Performed `make www` to perform the above and test under macOS.

TODO: Fix the problem of the initial line of code being extra intended.
TODO: Fix excess whitespace around code that is inline.

To build:

    make all

NOTE: there is an alternate version which will only work if you have an old enough compiler or a compiler that supports -traditional-cpp. The original code was fixed in 2023 to not require this.

Bugs and (Mis)features:

The current status of this entry is:

    STATUS: INABIAF - please **DO NOT** fix

For more detailed information see 1984 decot bugs.

To use:

    ./decot

Alternate code:

This alternate code, the original, requires a compiler that supports -traditional-cpp or an old enough compiler. If you have such a compiler you can use this version.

Alternate build:

    make alt

Alternate use:

    ./decot.alt

Judges' remarks:

This program prints out what looks like a fragment of C code.

Is this a bug or is this a feature? To help choose the judges offer this one comment: understand remarks!

Historical remarks:

Some new (in 1984) compilers disliked line 15 of the original source, so we changed it from:

    for(signal=0;*k * x * __FILE__ *i;) do {

to:

    for(signal=0;*k *x * __FILE__ *i;) do {

To see what we mean look at the original source file. The alternate code is the version that has this modification. The fixed version has instead:

    for(signal=0;*k *= * __FILE__ *i;) do {
