perl5: man pages installed in the wrong directory

Port: perl5

Description

The Perl man pages are put in the man1p and man3p directories. Those directories are typically used for POSIX man pages. To match what macOS does in /usr/share/man, they should be put in man1 and man3.

FYI, this originated in r48955 as a way to avoid conflicts between perl* ports and p5-* ports that install some of the same man pages.

That seems to have been superseded by r94655 so it seems the conflict no longer exists.
