[PATCH] Install man3 manpages to $PREFIX/share/man/man3 even for site installs

MakeMaker supports three installation modes: perl, site, and vendor. The first and third install manpages to $PREFIX/share/man, only site installs to $PREFIX/man. For consistency with the rest of git, which does not make the distinction and writes all manpages to $PREFIX/share/man, this change makes sure that perl does too, even when it's installed in site mode.
