libedit: fix badly-generated man pages
If nroff isn't detected by the build script, it will attempt to convert the mdoc macros into classic man macros.  Unfortunately, this results in the syntax being broken to the point where the man pages are pretty much useless.  Adding groff as a make dependency fixes this.
