docs: add support to build manpages from kerneldoc output

Generating man files currently requires running a separate
script. The target also doesn't appear at the docs Makefile.

Add support for mandocs at the Makefile, adding the build
logic inside sphinx-build-wrapper, updating documentation
and dropping the ancillary script.
