Distribute the manpage with the pip package
The 'data_files' option to setuptools.setup can be used to install additional files "outside" of the package [1]. Use it so that the manpage is installed with the package. Install the manpage to '$PREFIX/share/man/man5', mimicking what the Filesystem Hiararchy Standard mandates for the '/usr/local/' prefix [2]. Prefer '$PREFIX/share/man/man5' to '$PREFIX/man/man5' since the later is deprecated [3].
