G. Branden Robinson b54a3883c3 rpc.5: ffix
* Remove nop argument from HP macros.
* Remove nop DT macro.
* Replace LP macro with more commonly-used PP macro.

The above do not change the output whatsoever (confirmed with -Z).

* Use .I macro instead of font escapes, obtaining italic correction.

To see the above distinction, use -Tps, -Tpdf, or similar before and
after the change.
