Store generated man pages in the tree.

Building the man pages requires a full Django+MAAS stack, and unravelling that requires time. This is a not too ugly stop-gap.

FWIW I'd be happy with a test that checks consistency between source and generated page so it forces users to regenerate them before landing. This is probably much simpler than worrying about building them automatically.

71+The available commands are dependent on the API you are connecting to and the
72+profile you use. The currently available options are explained below.
73+.SH DESCRIPTION
74+.sp
75+As well as the web interface, many tasks can be performed by accessing
76+the MAAS API directly through the maas\-cli command. This section
77+details how to login with this tool and perform some common
78+operations.
79+.sp
80+Before the API will accept any commands from maas\-cli, you must first
81+login. To do this, you need the API key which can be found in the user
82+interface.
83+.sp
84+Login to the web interface on your MAAS. Click on the username in the
85+top right corner and select \(aqPreferences\(aq from the menu which appears.
86+[image]
87+.sp
88+A new page will load...
89+[image]
90+.sp
91+The very first item is a list of MAAS keys. One will have already been
92+generated when the system was installed. It\(aqs easiest to just select
93+and copy the key (it\(aqs quite long!) and then paste it into the
94+commandline. The format of the login command is:
95+.sp
96+.nf
97+.ft C
98+$ maas\-cli login <profile\-name> <hostname> <key>
99+.ft P
100+.fi
101+.sp
102+The profile created is an easy way of associating your credentials
103+with any subsequent call to the API. So an example login might look
104+like this:
105+.sp
106+.nf
107+.ft C
108+$ maas\-cli login maas http://10.98.0.13/MAAS/api/1.0 AWSCRMzqMNy:jjk...5e1FenoP82Qm5te2
109+.ft P
110+.fi
111+.sp
112+which creates the profile \(aqmaas\(aq and registers it with the given key
113+at the specified API endpoint. If you omit the credentials, they will
114+be prompted for in the console. It is also possible to use a hyphen,
115+\(aq\-\(aq in place of the credentials. In this case a single line will be
116+read from stdin, stripped of any whitespace and used as the
117+credentials, which can be useful if you are devolping scripts for
118+specific tasks. If an empty string is passed instead of the
119+credentials, the profile will be logged in anonymously (and
120+consequently some of the API calls will not be available)
121+.sp
122+The \fBmaas\-cli\fP command exposes the whole API, so you can do anything
123+you actually \fIcan\fP do with MAAS using this command. Unsurprisingly,
124+this leaves us with a vast number of options, but before we delve into
125+detail on the specifics, here is a sort of \(aqcheat\-sheet\(aq for common
126+tasks you might want to do using \fBmaas\-cli\fP.

562+Configuring DHCP and DNS.
563+.sp
564+To enable MAAS to manage DHCP and DNS, it needs to be supplied with the relevant
565+interface information. To do this we need to first determine the UUID of the
566+node group affected:
567+.sp
568+.nf
569+.ft C
570+$ uuid=$(maas\-cli <profile> node\-groups list | grep uuid | cut \-d\e" \-f4)
571+.ft P
572+.fi
573+.sp
574+Once we have the UUID we can use this to update the node\-group\-interface for
575+that nodegroup, and pass it the relevant interface details:
576+.sp
577+.nf
578+.ft C
579+$ maas\-cli <profile> node\-group\-interface update $uuid eth0 \e

829+maas\-import\-pxe\-files [\-h, \-\-help]
830+.SH DESCRIPTION
831+.sp
832+This is a helper script for the MAAS software. It downloads Ubuntu
833+images and organises them for use by MAAS in commissioning nodes.
834+The script is usually run regularly by a cron task, though it
835+needs to be run manually the first time a MAAS system is installed.
836+Images that are already in place are kept unchanged, unless the
837+version in the archive has since been updated.
838+.sp
839+The script reads a configuration file /etc/maas/import_pxe_files in
840+order to determine:
841+.sp
842+\fBARCHIVE:\fP
843+Location of the Ubuntu download archive
844+.sp
845+\fBRELEASES:\fP
846+Ubuntu releases to download
847+.sp
848+\fBARCHES:\fP
849+Architectures for which images should be downloaded
850+.sp
851+To support development setups that run directly from a code branch,
852+it will also look for /etc/maas/import_pxe_files relative to the
853+current directory.
854+.sp
855+The script uses \fIwget\fP to download the kernel and initrd image for
856+each architecture in ARCHES and each release in RELEASES. In addition
857+it copies the Intel\-architecture pre\-boot loader \fIpxelinux.0\fP (plus
858+some of its modules such as \fIchain.c32\fP) from its installed location in
859+/usr/lib/syslinux/.
860+.sp
861+These images are the minimum that\(aqs required to start installing a node.
862+During installation, a node may download its packages over the network.
