More man page reorganization.
Man pages need special handling, and we can have other kinds of documentation like initial starting guides, etc., which would have different processing applied. So lets move them off into their own directory.

+This contains the nng documentation for API users.
+
+The documentation is written in asciidoc in the form of man pages. It is
+automatically formatted for display on the website.
+
+It is possible to emit TROFF sources for use by the UNIX man page, and HTML
+for online viewing. asciidoctor supports PDF and EPUB formats via plugins,
+so there are still more options available.
+
+The man pages are in the "man" directory. The reason those are separate
+is that they get special treatment. Other documentation is located here.
