Make standalone man-page installation possible

Browse source 
The `cabal install git-annex` doesn't install the man pages, and the
Makefile only installed the man pages as part of a full build/install.
So, I factored out the documentation parts of the Makefile.

### Man pages
Cabal does not install the man pages. Do:
cd /tmp
cabal unpack git-annex
cd git-annex*
make install-mans PREFIX=~/.cabal
to install man pages under ~/.cabal/share/man (or $PREFIX/share/man
generally). If ~/.cabal/bin is on your PATH, and you're on a Debian
derivative, you're probably set.
On Debian systems, `manpath` will print the paths searched for manual
pages. The paths searched are inferred from your PATH. Experiments
indicate that, on Ubuntu, D/share/man will be searched for manual
pages whenever D/bin is on your PATH. So, having ~/.cabal/bin on your
PATH is enough to make the above example work. The `man manpath` does
not document this, but see
http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Debian/2003-08/0956.html for
some other special cases.
