setup.py: allow to override default "share/man" via environment variable

Browse Source 
Apparently on some BSD systems man pages go to /usr/man instead of /usr/share/man.
It's too complicated to keep track of all the nuances of Linux distros so package maintainers can simply override the default via a $FONTTOOLS_MANPATH env variable

Fixes #84

def find_data_files(manpath="share/man"):
""" Find FontTools's data_files (just man pages at this point).
By default, we install man pages to "share/man" directory relative to the
base installation directory for data_files. The latter can be changed with
the --install-data option of 'setup.py install' sub-command.
E.g., if the data files installation directory is "/usr", the default man
page installation directory will be "/usr/share/man".
You can override this via the $FONTTOOLS_MANPATH environment variable.
E.g., on some BSD systems man pages are installed to 'man' instead of
'share/man'; you can export $FONTTOOLS_MANPATH variable just before
installing:
$ FONTTOOLS_MANPATH="man" pip install -v .
[...]
running install_data
copying Doc/man/ttx.1 -> /usr/man/man1
When installing from PyPI, for this variable to have effect you need to
force pip to install from the source distribution instead of the wheel
package (otherwise setup.py is not run), by using the --no-binary option:
$ FONTTOOLS_MANPATH="man" pip install --no-binary=fonttools fonttools
Note that you can only override the base man path, i.e. without the
section number (man1, man3, etc.). The latter is always implied to be 1,
for "general commands".
