sterni b3f686995f feat(users/sterni/htmlman): hyperlink .Xr macro in output
We make use of the -O man=… option of mandoc(1) which allows to convert
cross references via the .Xr macro into actual hyperlinks in the output.
This can be disabled (by passing "none") or done in two modes:

* all: links all .Xr cross references as if they were in
  $out/%N.%S.html. This will lead to broken links of course.
* inManDir: only link to files in $out if the man page is found in
  manDir, use the template defined in linkXrFallback if not.

all is the default, since we don't require all man pages to be in
manDir, so it would be potentially confusing if the path attribute was
used in the pages list.

linkXrFallback uses the debian online man viewer by default currently,
since it can be decently hyperlinked and debian has a lot of packages.
Other options would be:

* https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/latest/en/man%S/%N.%S.html
* https://man.archlinux.org/man/%N.%S.en
* https://man.openbsd.org/%N.%S
* https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man%S/%N.%S.html
