Protect index entries for environment variables from being handled as
case-insensitive by buildindex.py.

This fixes a (minor) problem discovered by AMK when you don't want any
...
special markup for the first column of a table using {tableii} or {tableiii}.
In LaTeX, this requires using "textrm" as the formatting function, and this
is needed to remove the bogus "<textrm>" that gets generated otherwise.
There should probably be a more general mapping of specified markup to useful
markup, but that doesn't appear needed at the moment.
do_env_tableii(), do_env_tableiii(): If the markup for the first column is
\textrm, make it empty.
do_cmd_lineii(), do_cmd_lineiii(): If the markup for the first column is
empty, don't add markup around the text.

On function signatures, always use parameter names. Make return types match

Reverting some the index stuff to use tools/newind.py again; this works
...
better with LaTeX2HTML.

run match those for the first run, and seesm to get (somewhat) better
outline results.
