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].
