Johannes Altmanninger a1baf97f54 Do not embed man pages in CMake builds
Commit 0709e4be8b (Use standalone code paths by default, 2025-10-26)
mainly wanted to embed internal functions to unbreak upgrade scenarios.

Embedding man pages in CMake has small-ish disadvantages:
1. extra space usage
2. less discoverability
3. a "cyclic" dependency:
   1. "sphinx-docs" depends on "fish_indent"
   2. "fish_indent" via "crates/build-man-pages" depends on "doc_src/".
   So every "touch doc_src/foo.rst && ninja -Cbuild sphinx-docs"
   re-builds fish, just to re-run sphinx-build.

The significant one is number 3.  It can be worked around by running
sphinx-build with stale "fish_indent" but I don't think we want to
do that.

Let's backtrack a little by stopping embedding man pages in CMake
builds; use the on-disk man pages (which we still install).

The remaining "regression" from 0709e4be8b is that "ninja -Cbuild
fish" needs to rebuild whenever anything in "share/" changes.  I don't
know if that's also annoying?

Since man pages for "build/fish" are not in share/, expose the exact
path as $__fish_man_dir.
