Dear Debian sbuild maintainers,

The question in thread started at 
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2023/07/msg00167.html
show the need to mention that --extra-package also accepts a directory as 
parameter in the
man page synopsis section. I am proposing the following patch:

diff --git a/man/sbuild.1.in b/man/sbuild.1.in
index b1fcf70f..5d7ac8f8 100644
--- a/man/sbuild.1.in
+++ b/man/sbuild.1.in
