Eric Paris edcf765d9f Mangen: allow callers to specify header information
We previously had this weak argument called projectName which let you
set a single part of a man page header. Instead do the best we can if
the caller doesn't pass us anything, but let the caller specify anything
they want.

# Generating Man Pages For Your Own cobra.Command
Generating bash completions from a cobra command is incredibly easy. An example is as follows:
```go
package main
import (
"github.com/spf13/cobra"
)
func main() {
cmd := &cobra.Command{
Use: "test",
Short: "my test program",
}
header := &cobra.GenManHeader{
Title: "MINE",
Section: "3",
}
cmd.GenManTree(header, "/tmp")
}
```
That will get you a man page `/tmp/test.1`
