Add reference pages for 16 operators, including a relational/boolean category #9
Description
These 16 operators have no reference page under docs/commands/:
- Relational and boolean:
and,eq,false,ge,gt,le,lt,ne,not,or,true,xor. The Guide has no relational/boolean command category at all. - Device and output:
copypage,nulldevice,showpage - Font and text:
xyshow
All are LanguageLevel 1 except xyshow, which is LanguageLevel 2 (PLRM 3rd ed., Appendix A).
Suggested fix: add a reference page for each, plus a relational/boolean category for the first group.
Context: claricle/postscript builds its operator vocabulary from the Guide's command pages (claricle/postscript#4). Until these pages exist, the gem supplies their categories and levels in data/operator_overrides.yml, and each entry's reason links back here.

All 16 operators now have reference pages on
main, added in #14:and,eq,false,ge,gt,le,lt,ne,not,or,true,xor. They are grouped under a new Relational and Boolean category (docs/commands/relational-boolean/), which is linked from the commands index.copypage,nulldevice,showpage. All three are listed in the Device and Output category index.xyshow, listed in the Font and Text category index.Each page states its LanguageLevel.
xyshowis LanguageLevel 2 and the other 15 are LanguageLevel 1, as in PLRM 3rd ed., Appendix A.Now that these pages exist,
claricle/postscriptcan take these operators from the Guide. Their entries indata/operator_overrides.ymlcan then be removed in that repo.Closing as done.
