The man page says:
Strings may be direct text encoded in the locale for which the
compose file is to be used, or an escaped octal or hexadecimal
character code. Octal codes are specified as "\123" and
hexadecimal codes as "\0x123a".
But the grammar in the parser and the implementation say:
ESCAPED_CHAR ::= ('\\' | '\"' | OCTAL | HEX )
HEX ::= '\' (x|X) HEX_CHAR [HEX_CHAR]]
HEX_CHAR ::= (0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|A|B|C|D|E|F|a|b|c|d|e|f)
So "\0x123a" -> "\x3a".

The Compose format has a feature which allows specifying certain
modifiers must (or must not) be present with a given keysym in the
sequence.
The grammar in imLcPrs.c and the Compose man page both do not match what
the code actually does (see the handling of the variables
`modifier_mask` and `modifier` in parseline() in imLcPrs.c, which are
eventually matched as `ev->state & modifier_mask == modifier`).
Also explicitly list the accepted modifier names, since they are
not standard (e.g. "Ctrl" instead of "Control").

Commit 9df349a789 added support for %S
in Compose file include statements - this documents it in the Compose
file man page.
Also changes the existing substitution documentation to list format
instead of a paragraph format to allow easier adding of %S.
