Hello,

These patches reduce the man-db closure significantly, notably by
removing Perl and Gawk from the reference graph.  Incidentally, that
also removes Perl from the reference graph of the GuixSD installation
image.

I’ve confirmed that the resulting man-db still works as expected by
running commands like:

  ./pre-inst-env guix environment -C --ad-hoc man-db man-pages \
     -- man pthread_create

Feedback welcome!

Ludo’.

  gnu: Add groff-minimal.
  gnu: man-db: Use 'groff-minimal' at run time.
