This installs separate manpages for each nix subcommand. It also adds an operation nix help [subcommand] that runs man on the appropriate manpage (similar to git help [subcommand]).

TODO: make --help do the same thing.

This is useful for generating the nix manpages, but it may have other
applications (like generating configuration files without a Nix store).
