Support OSC 8 hyperlinks in man pages
* lisp/man.el: Require `ansi-osc'.
(Man-ansi-osc-handlers): New variable.
(Man-fontify-manpage): Call ansi-osc-apply-on-region to buttonize
OSC 8 hyperlinks. (Bug#81240)
* etc/NEWS: Announce the new feature.
Also noting that there was some previous discussion in bug 81874 and
82022 about this behavior.
