#48141: "port select" should link manpages

------------------------------------+--------------------------------
`port select` makes it easy for a user to manage multiple versions of a
port. However, there is no symbolic link in `/opt/local/share/man`
corresponding to that in `/opt/local/bin`. For example, after typing `port
select gcc mp-gcc49`, the command `gcc` runs the selected version.
However, `man gcc` says "No manual entry for gcc."
Selecting a version using `port select` should also make appropriate
symbolic links so the manpage for the selected version is displayed when
`man <group>` is given.
