Lennart Poettering bad1837c18 Revert "man: ship systemd-udevd as the real manpage"
We want to keep things uniform, and hence treat udevd's man page like
any other in the repo. What matters is how users primarily interface
with a service, and that is not the binary path in /usr/lib/systemd but
the service name.

This reverts commit 6c1f3ba54a.
