[OE-core] [PATCH 2/2] perf: enable man pages for 'help' functionality

When using 'perf help <subcommand>', it can't find 'man' command and pages for
perf.
The perf man pages depends on the xmlto-native and asciidoc-native, so we just
need to add the two packages to the DEPENDS variable and add 'man'to
RDEPENDS_perf-doc.
