    Mk/bsd.port.mk: Sunset MANPREFIX

    For historical reasons FreeBSD had been using PREFIX/man to install man
    pages and a variable MANPREFIX was utilized to do this. While the rest
    of the UNIX/Linux world had been mostly using PREFIX/share. As the
    first step of moving to PREFIX/share/man this commit removes all the
    references to the MANPREFIX variable. Apart from MAKE_ARGS this
    variable no longer exists and should not be used to refer to PREFIX
    anymore in the future.

    The entire shift to PREFIX/share/man will take some more times as there
    are around 4000 ports which installs man page to PREFIX/man.
