Tom Gundersen 12b42c7667 man: revert dynamic paths for split-usr setups
This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream
introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a
downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the
current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release.

 * by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the
   search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search
   path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is
   worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we
   could ship this.

 * this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend
   on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing
   man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before
   we could ship with this patch.

 * we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order
   to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start
   adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should
   probably question if it makes sense at all.

<title>Description</title>
<para><command>systemd-delta</command> may be used to identify and
compare configuration files that override other configuration
files. Files in <filename>/etc</filename> have highest priority,
files in <filename>/run</filename> have the second highest
priority, ..., files in <filename>/lib</filename> have lowest
priority. Files in a directory with higher priority override files
with the same name in directories of lower priority. In addition,
certain configuration files can have <literal>.d</literal>
directories which contain "drop-in" files with configuration
snippets which augment the main configuration file. "Drop-in"
files can be overridden in the same way by placing files with the
same name in a directory of higher priority (except that in case
of "drop-in" files, both the "drop-in" file name and the name of
the containing directory, which corresponds to the name of the
main configuration file, must match). For a fuller explanation,
see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
</para>
<para>The command line argument will be split into a prefix and a
suffix. Either is optional. The prefix must be one of the
directories containing configuration files
(<filename>/etc</filename>, <filename>/run</filename>,
<filename>/usr/lib</filename>, ...). If it is given, only
overriding files contained in this directory will be shown.
Otherwise, all overriding files will be shown. The suffix must be
a name of a subdirectory containing configuration files like
<filename>tmpfiles.d</filename>, <filename>sysctl.d</filename> or
<filename>systemd/system</filename>. If it is given, only
configuration files in this subdirectory (across all configuration
paths) will be analyzed. Otherwise, all configuration files will
be analyzed. If the command line argument is not given at all, all
configuration files will be analyzed. See below for some
examples.</para>
