manpage build: fail early when xmlto is not available When we try to build manpages with xmlto and sed, but xmlto is missing fail at the xmlto stage. Otherwise, one may run `cd doc; make' and miss the warnings like: xmlto: not found sed: hg.1: No such file or directory and end up with empty files installed as manpages.

Mercurial's documentation is currently kept in ASCIIDOC format, which
is a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit. It's also
convertible to a variety of other formats including standard UNIX man
page format and HTML.
To do this, you'll need to install ASCIIDOC:
http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/
To generate the man page:
asciidoc -d manpage -b docbook hg.1.txt
xmlto man hg.1.xml
To display:
groff -mandoc -Tascii hg.1 | more
To create the html page (without stylesheets):
asciidoc -b html4 hg.1.txt
(older asciidoc may want html instead of html4 above)
