doc: do not distribute generated man/*.1 man files
* man/help2man: New file. * man/Makefile.am: Use $(srcdir)/help2man. Convert $(dist_man1_MANS) to $(man1_MANS), to tell automake not to distribute the generated man/*.1 files. Now they're generated at build-from-tarball time. ($(man1_MANS)): Depend on version.c, so that man pages are regenerated whenever the version string changes.
