setup: when possible, build and bundle man pages This makes it so the manual pages are built as part of the Python build, and includes them in any wheel generated. This should make Python wheels a much more useful and complete way of distributing Mercurial binaries. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D9640

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
