man/.dir-locals is to keep indentation under control.
This makes it much easier to compile and run those examples, c.f. #7578.
v2:
- copy more of .dir-locals.el from the root to man/.dir-locals.el
(I though emacs would inherit from the one in the parent dir, but
it seems it just uses its own broken defaults, including
indent-tabs-mode by default.)
