Mike Frysinger 60457d8a25 manual: delete nested @cartouche
Putting @cartouche inside of @smallexample does not work with HTML output
as the former produces a <table> while the latter produces a <pre>.  You
cannot nest a <table> in a <pre> as the contents are no longer formatted.

Since it's entirely unnecessary, and none of the other examples do this,
just drop the cartouche.
