manual: delete nested @cartouche

Putting @cartouche inside of @smallexample does not work with HTML output
as the former produces a <table> while the latter produces a <pre>. You
cannot nest a <table> in a <pre> as the contents are no longer formatted.
Since it's entirely unnecessary, and none of the other examples do this,
just drop the cartouche.
