Subject: 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.

+== NAME
+
+nng_http_handler_set_method - set HTTP handler method
+
+== SYNOPSIS
+
+[source, c]
+-----------
+#include <nng/nng.h>
+#include <nng/supplemental/http/http.h>
+
+int nng_http_handler_set_method(nng_http_handler *handler, const char *method);
+-----------
+
+== DESCRIPTION
+
+The `nng_http_handler_set_method()` function sets the _method_ that the
+_handler_ will be called for, such as "GET" or "POST".  (By default the
+"GET" method is handled.)  If _method_ is `NULL`, then the request method
+is not examined, and the handler will be executed regardless of the
+method.
+
+NOTE: The server will automatically call "GET" handlers if the client
+sends a "HEAD" request, and will suppress HTTP body data in the responses
+sent for such requests.
+
+NOTE: No validation of the _method_ is performed, but HTTP specifications
+insist that the actual method sent over the wire be capitalized.
+
+The handler may always examine the actual method used using the
+<<nng_http_req_get_method#,nng_http_req_get_method(3)>> function.
+
+== RETURN VALUES
+
+This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
+
+== ERRORS
+
+`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient free memory exists.
+`NNG_ENOTSUP`:: No support for HTTP in the library.
+
+== SEE ALSO
