Since #68242 Guix uses zstd compression for man pages. Unfortunately,
upstream mandoc only supports gzip compressed man pages. Luckily, zstd
provides a wrapper library which easily allows adapting software using
zlib to zstd compression. This patch uses this wrapper library in
conjunction with mandoc to add support for zstd compression to it,
thereby allowing Guix man pages to be viewed with mandoc again.
Without this patch, mandoc is essentially defunct on Guix.
* gnu/packages/man.scm (mandoc): Support zstd compression.
* gnu/local.mk: Add new patch.
* gnu/packages/patches/mandoc-support-zstd-compression.patch: New file.
