Escape dashes in xzmore.1
A minus sign is larger, easier to see in a printout, and more
likely to use the same glyph as ASCII hyphen-minus in a terminal
than a hyphen. Since broken manual pagers do not find hyphens
when the user searches for a hyphen-minus, minus signs are also
easier to search for. So use minus signs instead of hyphens to
render sample terminal output.
