	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_poll - poll for activity on a socket, channel or listener
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# SYNOPSIS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
~~~c
 | 
						|
#include <libssh2.h>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
int
 | 
						|
libssh2_poll(LIBSSH2_POLLFD *fds, unsigned int nfds, long timeout);
 | 
						|

						|
 |

# DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This function is deprecated. Do note use. We encourage users to instead use
 | 
						|
the *poll(3)* or *select(3)* functions to check for socket activity or
 | 
						|
when specific sockets are ready to get received from or send to.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Poll for activity on a socket, channel, listener, or any combination of these
 | 
						|
three types. The calling semantics for this function generally match
 | 
						|
*poll(2)* however the structure of fds is somewhat more complex in order
 | 
						|
to accommodate the disparate datatypes, POLLFD constants have been namespaced
 | 
						|
to avoid platform discrepancies, and revents has additional values defined.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# RETURN VALUE
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Number of fds with interesting events.
