build: use system help2man
...
Instead of shipping an old ‘help2man’ that is not properly maintained,
use the system’s ‘help2man’. It was already listed as a build
prerequisite, and being configured via AM_MISSING_PROG.
Problem for FreeBSD and NetBSD reported by Bruno Haible
<https://bugs.gnu.org/72235 >.
* man/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Remove help2man.
($(dist_man1_MANS)): Do not depend on help2man.
Use $(HELP2MAN) instead.
* man/help2man: Remove.

maint: quote 'like this' or "like this", not `like this'

This is in response to a recent change in the GNU coding standards,
which now suggest quoting 'like this' or "like this", instead of
`like this' or ``like this''.

doc: rename diff.texi to diffutils.texi
...
This makes the .texi basename the same as the package name,
which is consistent with most other GNU packages.
* doc/diffutils.texi: Rename from...
* doc/diff.texi: ...removed.
* doc/Makefile.am (info_TEXINFOS): Reflect name change.
(diffutils_TEXINFOS): Likewise.
* cfg.mk (gendocs_options_): Remove this customization. It is no
longer needed, now that the .texi name matches that of the package.
* man/Makefile.am ($(dist_man1_MANS)): Remove now-unnecessary sed
filter.
* README: Update references to diffutils.texi etc. here, too.
* .gitignore: Update here, too.
