The regex currently used by compress-documentation to compress manpages only
supports numeric man sections, which sometimes isn't the case (eg
man-pages-posix section 0p). Guix compiles with this change, but I haven't been
able to actually test packages with it due to these patches rebuilding
everything.

I'm not sure if something similar should be done for the infopage regex? I'm not
familiar with it.

  build/gnu: Support compressing non-numeric man sections.
  gnu: man-pages-posix: Remove redundant manpage compression.
