Viktor Szakats b889b39945 docs: convert man page sources to "curldown" format
To render in Git webviews as-is, to make it easier to edit, verify,
and to sync up with curl.

- add options to not build the `.3` man pages:
  - autotools: `--disable-docs`
  - cmake: `LIBSSH2_BUILD_DOCS=OFF`
- building `.3` man pages requires Perl after this patch.
- drop `mansyntax` and the shell / `grep` / GNU `man` tool requirements with it.
- scripts and most logic were copied from curl.
- add `cd2nroff` from curl, with edits to relax curl-specific checks.
- used `nroff2cd` (from curl) to convert from `.3` to `.md`. Then
  manually fixed copyrights, inline function references and a couple
  of other things.

# NAME
libssh2_trace - enable debug info from inside libssh2
# SYNOPSIS
~~~c
#include <libssh2.h>
int
libssh2_trace(LIBSSH2_SESSION *session, int bitmask);
~~~
# DESCRIPTION
This is a function present in the library that can be used to get debug info
from within libssh2 when it is running. Helpful when trying to trace or debug
behaviors. Note that this function has no effect unless libssh2 was built to
support tracing! It is usually disabled in release builds.
**bitmask** can be set to the logical OR of none, one or more of these:
## LIBSSH2_TRACE_SOCKET
Socket low-level debugging
## LIBSSH2_TRACE_TRANS
Transport layer debugging
## LIBSSH2_TRACE_KEX
Key exchange debugging
## LIBSSH2_TRACE_AUTH
Authentication debugging
## LIBSSH2_TRACE_CONN
Connection layer debugging
## LIBSSH2_TRACE_SCP
SCP debugging
## LIBSSH2_TRACE_SFTP
SFTP debugging
## LIBSSH2_TRACE_ERROR
Error debugging
## LIBSSH2_TRACE_PUBLICKEY
Public Key debugging
# RETURN VALUE
Currently always 0, no error.
