separate build targets for man and html documentation
This introduces new build targets "man" and "html" which allow building
the documentation in the respective formats separately. This helps
people with a partial documentation build chain: html pages can be built
without xmlto.
This is documented in INSTALL now, together with corrections: Before,
instructions in INSTALL would build man+html but install man only. Now
the instructions build and install both, and new and pre-existing
targets are explained.
Note that build targets "doc" and "man" correspond to install targets
"install-doc install-html" and "install-doc" respectively. This
inconsistency is not changed, in order to keep everyone's build scripts
from breaking.
