doc: Fix parallel build of roff files
The roff build rule builds all of the roff files in a single command. Previously, this was expressed as a multi-target rule, but since this is equivalent to specifying a copy of the rule for each target, make -jN could start up to N parallel instances of this command. Fix this by bottlenecking this rule through a single stamp file. This also removes the unused man.stamp from CLEAN.
