HOWTO-RELEASE: use gnulib for gendocs instead of texinfo
...
These days it seems that gendocs can be done entirely from
the templates in gnulib, rather than requiring the texinfo
repository.

fix make distcheck
...
The dependency of the distributed file stow.8 on the non-distributed
file Makefile was causing this error:
ERROR: files left in build directory after distclean:
./doc/stow.8
The automake FAQ explains why this happens:
https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Errors-with-distclean.html
so change stow.8 to depend on Makefile.am which is distributed.

These should be generated at development / install-time, rather than
distributing versions via git which will inevitably age over time.

fix stowing of relative links when --no-folding is used
...
With a tree like this:
.
|-- stow
| `-- pkg
| `-- lib
| |-- itk-current -> itk4.0.0
| `-- itk4.0.0
| `-- libitk4.0.0.so
`-- target
`-- lib
|-- itk4.0.0 -> ../../stow/pkg/lib/itk4.0.0
`-- libfoo-1.2.3.so
stowing pkg with the --no-folding option resulted in itk-current
being "unpacked":
.
`-- target
`-- lib
|-- itk-current
| `-- libitk4.0.0.so -> ../../../stow/pkg/lib/itk-current/libitk4.0.0.so
|-- itk4.0.0
| `-- libitk4.0.0.so -> ../../../stow/pkg/lib/itk4.0.0/libitk4.0.0.so
`-- libfoo-1.2.3.so
This commit fixes it so that it gets stowed as a symlink:
.
`-- target
`-- lib
...
|-- itk-current -> ../../stow/pkg/lib/itk-current
...

avoid precedence warning
...
With Perl 5.20, installing a package with stow gives a warning like
this:
Possible precedence issue with control flow operator at
/gar/packages/stow-2.2.0/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.20.0/Stow.pm line 1736.

correctly handle the stow/target directories as non-canonical paths
...
Fix the case discovered by Hiroyuki Iwatsuki where stowing fails if
the stow / target directories are non-canonical paths. For example,
on FreeBSD /home is a symlink pointing to 'usr/home', so running with
the stow directory as /home/user/local/stow and the target directory
as /home/user/local previously resulted in the stow directory path
being calculated as ../../../usr/home/user/local/stow relative to
the target.

These files are by definition specific to a given package,
so if they exist in the top-level directory, they should
not be stowed.
