The book and the HTML set #pairs tables roomy, the A4 sheet tight

A pairs-density state, set to tight by cheatsheet-a4.typ and roomy
otherwise, gives book and HTML tables more row padding and room between
the key and the meaning. The book sets its body at 10pt with more space
around sections and between paragraphs and list items.
