#26591: doc/ missing in build directory for out-of-tree builds

-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
**autoconf** allows building tor outside the source directory using
{{{--srcdir=DIR}}}.
In that case, ''doc/'' is not copied or symlinked from source to build
directory, causing pages to be unnesseccarily regenerated using
**rst2man**.
Would it be possible to adjust the ''configure'' stage to account for
this?
Specifically, this would allow complete out-of-tree builds at least on
OpenBSD, where where the following quirk is required after ''configure''
and before ''build'' stage to enable separation without **py-docutils** as
additional build dependency:
{{{
pre-build:
ln -sf ${WRKSRC}/doc/ ${WRKBUILD}/
}}}
