    [troff]: Refactor `hcode` request handler.
    
    * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (set_hyphenation_codes): Refactor in
      preparation for firming-up of the semantics and logic of request
      arguments to constitute space-separated lexical tokens, as our
      documentation defines "argument".  Call `token::skip_spaces()` when
      "pumping" the input stream and govern the input-reading loop using
      `token::is_newline()` and `token::is_eof()` instead of `has_arg()`.
