Move manpages to scdoc
This rewrites the existing manpages to use the `scdoc` format, making it
simpler to read and edit the manpages without intricate roff knowledge.

Some minor changes to the manpages were made in the process, mostly
focusing on correcting some of the wording. The list of maintainers has
also changed to ensure people not involved in the project anymore aren't
unnecessarily contacted for support.

ALACRITTY(1)
# NAME
Alacritty - A fast, cross-platform, OpenGL terminal emulator
# SYNOPSIS
Alacritty is a modern terminal emulator that comes with sensible defaults, but
allows for extensive configuration. By integrating with other applications,
rather than reimplementing their functionality, it manages to provide a flexible
set of features with high performance.
# FLAGS
*-h, --help*
Prints help information
*--hold*
Remain open after child process exits
*--print-events*
Print all events to stdout
*-q*
Reduces the level of verbosity (the min level is *-qq*)
*--ref-test*
Generates ref test
*-v*
Increases the level of verbosity (the max level is *-vvv*)
*-V, --version*
Prints version information
# OPTIONS
*--class* <general> | <general>,<instance>
Defines the window class hint on Linux [default: Alacritty,Alacritty]
When only the general class is passed, instance will be set to the same value.
On Wayland the general class sets the _app\_id_, while the instance class is ignored.

. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/alacritty.yml
. $HOME/.config/alacritty/alacritty.yml
. $HOME/.alacritty.yml
On Windows, the configuration file is located at %APPDATA%\\alacritty\\alacritty.yml.
*--embed* <parent>
X11 window ID to embed Alacritty within (decimal or hexadecimal with _0x_ prefix)
*-o, --option* <option>...
Override configuration file options [example: cursor.style=Beam]
*--socket* <socket>

*-T, --title* <title>
