Michael Kerrisk 93f18cbb9c proc.5, charsets.7: ffix: use en-dash for ranges, not em-dash
A recent patch fixed the use of dashes in ranges in
various places, but mistakenly used em-dashes, rather than
en-dashes. Fix that.

Based on a patch by Bjarni Ingi Gislason.

According to SI, ""The numerical value always precedes the unit,
and a space is always used to separate the unit from the number
[...] The only exceptions to this rule are for the unit symbols
for degree, minute, and second for plane angle."
