Summary

Reported in PR 241985

The manual page references the "vi/ex reference manual" but there is no
information about where to find that document. Add a reference to the manual in
the SEE ALSO section since the Project hosts a copy of it.

If D26158 gets reviewed and committed, we could close that PR.

Test Plan
  • mandoc -Tlint clean (3 false positives)
  • igor shows multiple warnings for contractions.
  • aspell happy
  • man ./vi.1 renders the page properly
