Add 'doc' Makefile target for generating PDF version of man page
This change adds a new target to the Makefile that can be used for generating a PDF version of the man page. It also checks in the generated file and links to it from the README. We have also experimented with creation of an HTML version, but at least the groff generated file is not very visually pleasing and also cannot be linked to directly from Github. Github wants to prevent hosting of web pages directly like this in repositories and instead promote their Github Pages solution for that purpose. To that end they deliver content with a Content-Type representing plain text which causes HTML to not be rendered. PDF content, however, is rendered in-line and looks reasonable at that.
