Description
The manual is in docs/. To jive with GNU project standards, we need to build a texinfo version of the docs for release tarballs (and we should do html and pdf versions, too).
The thing this requires us to do is get a texinfo output thing for the docs set up and making sure the infrastructure is there to do it going forward.

I tweaked the Makefile and conf.py files in d453571. I can now build a texinfo file from the manual. I tested it with Emacs and it looks ok--including the images.

I'm going to tentatively toss this in the 0.0.4 bin and assign to myself. Chris says there's an outputter already out there and he's tested it, so theoretically, this should be pretty easy to do.
