coreutils: don't generate useless dummy stub manpages

We had a couple patches to 1) deal with missing perl and 2) deal
with the perl-less "dummy" help2man fallout, but in the end, they
achieve no purpose whatsoever, since they just populate the doc
RPM with manpages like this one:

  NAME
       chmod - a GNU coreutils 8.22 program

  DESCRIPTION
       OOOPS!   Due to the lack of perl on the build system, we were
       unable to create a proper manual page for chmod.

As the above serves no purpose whatsoever, and since the concept
of running the binaries to capture the "--help" text output is
completely broken for cross compiles, lets just decouple man page
generation from the building of coreutils entirely so it paves the
way for importing pre-generated manpages.

+
+The use of "help2man" doesn't work at all for cross compile, in
+addition to the extra requirement of perl it adds.
+
+Just decouple the manpages from the build in order to pave the way for
+importing prebuilt manpages that can be used in a cross build situation.
