contrib: Add support for out-of-tree builds in gen-manpages.sh
This adds support for setting the environment variable `BUILDDIR`
to point to executables that are outside the source directory.
E.g. to invoke the tool when the build is in $PWD/build:
```bash
BUILDDIR=$PWD/build contrib/devtools/gen-manpages.sh
```
