Previously the NixOS-specific configuration for man-db was in the package itself and /etc/man.conf was completely ignored. This change moves it to /etc/man_db.conf, making declarative configuration practical again. It's now possible to generate the mandb caches for all packages installed through NixOS `environment.systemPackages` at build-time. The standard location for the stateful cache (/var/cache/man) is also configured to allow users to run `mandb` manually if they wish. Since generating the cache can be expensive the option is off by default.wip/yesman
