Josh Triplett 30c768b322 Rewrite automake's data installation rules, because they suck. 
Specifically, they didn't handle installing data from both srcdir and builddir.
We have the tutorial in the srcdir, and build the manual in the builddir.

Also, stop rebuilding the manual for each make target in the doc directory, and
every time any of those targets get called.  This change now makes the manual
never rebuild once built; we plan to fix that later, by rewriting the makefiles
to avoid recursive make, and then making the manual depend on the source files.

Commit by Jamey Sharp and Josh Triplett.

About libxcb
============

libxcb provides an interface to the X Window System protocol, slated to
replace the current Xlib interface. It has several advantages over
Xlib, including:
- size: small library and lower memory footprint
- latency hiding: batch several requests and wait for the replies later
- direct protocol access: one-to-one mapping between interface and protocol
- proven thread support: transparently access XCB from multiple threads
- easy extension implementation: interfaces auto-generated from XML-XCB

Xlib can also use XCB as a transport layer, allowing software to make
requests and receive responses with both, which eases porting to XCB.
However, client programs, libraries, and toolkits will gain the most
benefit from a native XCB port.
