chore(man): Don't compress man pages during build (#69)
Compressing man pages is a distribution / user preference that should be handled on the packaging side of things. Indeed, compressing man pages by default imposes a compression algorithm / level for users whereas most package managers handle that already and allow users to choose / configure them (if wanted at all). Additionally, it can lead to unexpected side effects. For instance, gzip recording timestamps in metadata by default, which prevents reproducible builds (see 51efce8). See https://cmpct.info/~sam/blog/posts/automatic-manpage-compression/ for detailed rational.
