We really should define a special markup for these so that it is not
necessary to so frequently repeat this.

POSIX uses {braces} for potentially-configurable system parameters
such as {NGROUPS_MAX} or {PATH_MAX}.  I think sysctl(8) nodes are of
a similar flavor, so perhaps all we need is a macro for braces (which
we already have) and a .Er/.Dv analogue, call it .Sc or something like
that.
