<content type='text'>
Font problem reported by Michael Aramini via Alejandro Colomar
&lt;https://bugs.gnu.org/80258&gt;.  This patch also fixes some
longstanding confusion with date synopses.
* src/date.c (usage): Do not imply that only -u can be used with
MMDDhhmm..., and do not put misleading brackets around the latter.

<title>doc: use TERM=dumb rather than HELP_NO_MARKUP to disable markup</title>

<id>urn:sha1:87219034b7f9d6aec993298ac4f6177d3555d723</id>
<content type='text'>
This is a more standard mechanism to disable markup.

* src/system.h (oputs_): Logic change to honor TERM=dumb,
rather than HELP_NO_MARKUP=something.
* doc/coreutils.texi: Adjust the description for --help.
* man/local.mk: Ensure TERM is set to something,
so that man pages have links included.
* man/viewman: Just honor users $TERM.
* tests/misc/getopt_vs_usage.sh: Remove env var complication,
as TERM is unset automatically.
* tests/misc/usage_vs_refs.sh: Likewise.
* NEWS: Adjust the change in behavior note.
