The Linux man-pages project has added `2type`, `3head`, and `3type` recently. A web search for `man3head` gives hits for lists of sections in the wild that are so large that we don't want to enumerate and follow all of them. For example, https://illumos.org/man/ lists 86 different such `man[1-9]` categories at time of writing. Allowing arbitrary lowercase ASCII after a numeric suffix will result in some false positives, but seems the only maintainable option. Closes #778
