Use upstream manpages instead of stub Debian-provided man page

Bug Description

Impact
======
The Debian provided stub manpage is not very useful. Now that upstream includes manpages, we should build and ship those instead.

This replaces p11-kit1. with the much more verbose and useful
trust.1, pkcs11.conf.5 and p11-kit.8

Test Case
========
Run man p11-kit, man trust and man pkcs11.conf

Regression Potential
====================
For yakkety, please sync p11-kit 0.23.2-5.

For xenial, I am including a debdiff to backport the changes from 0.23.2-4 and 0.23.2-5 with the exception of enabling all hardening flags since I think the SRU policy discourages making changes like that.

0.23.2-4 updates the package descriptions in debian/control.

Please sync p11-kit 0.23.2-5 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Changelog entries since current yakkety version 0.23.2-4:

p11-kit (0.23.2-5) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Build and ship upstream manpages. (Thanks, Julien Cristau)
    + Add b-d on gtk-doc-tools.
    + Pass --enable-doc to ./configure.
    + Drop minimal debian/p11-kit.1 manpage.
    Closes: #834992

I installed the proposed p11-kit update to Ubuntu GNOME 16.04. I confirm that man p11-kit, man trust and man pkcs11.conf all work and show the expanded upstream versions.
