When using --with-config-file, all man-db programs completely ignore the systemwide configuration in /etc/man_db.conf: it means on NixOS there is no way to change the configuration without rebuilding man-db, which in turn causes a mass-rebuild. To solve this problem this commit removes the NixOS-specific configuration in man-db, which wasn't the appropriate place to begin with: the package is expected to work on non-NixOS systems as well. Also a small patch now ensure /etc/man_db.conf is used, if available, before the bundled configuration.
