please do review 2nd commit of makewhatis

remove `share` from `MANDIR` - on OpenBSD the man should end up at `/usr/local/man/man1/rdrview.1`
`makewhatis` is run via cron weekly on OpenBSD, until then invoking `man rdrview` works but produces: `man: outdated mandoc.db lacks rdrview(1) entry, run makewhatis /usr/local/man`

Downsides of this commit:
* makewhatis takes a lot of time
* `uname -s` is run again, `$(SYSTEM)` not used
* I am not sure wheter other platforms need makewhatis or not
* I am not sure it is good practice to put makewhatis into `install` and `uninstall`
