[PATCH v8 17/23] Documentation: teach "cmd-list.perl" about out-of-tree builds

[Patrick Steinhardt <ps@xxxxxx>]

The "cmd-list.perl" script generates a list of commands that can be
included into our manpages. The script doesn't know about out-of-tree
builds and instead writes resulting files into the source directory.

Adapt it such that we can read data from the source directory and write
data into the build directory.
