[bug#64672] gnu: Add stdman.
Commit Message
* gnu/packages/cpp.scm (stdman): New variable.
---
Hi Guix,
this commit adds a package for the stdman [0] generated man pages. As they already provide the man pages generated with the latest version on the repository, this package basically clones their repo and moves the pages to the package's output. If you think it's better to build the program and generate the man pages instead, let me know!
Regards,
Luis Higino

Thank you for your patch, and sorry for the delay of response.
I finally wrote a definition that builds the stdman program and
generates the man pages, based on your initial work.
Closing.
