[OE-core] [PATCH] bitbake.conf: drop pod2man from hosttools

pod2man writes the current date into manpages, and while later
versions of it respect SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH and use that instead,
earlier versions do not. This was found to cause reproducibility
issues.

This patch replaces host version of pod2man with one from
perl-native.
