manpages expect the date of the last revision, if that is not found
DocBook Stylesheets go through a series of hacks to generate one with
the format `%d/%d/%Y` which is not ideal.
In addition to this format not being standard, different tools generate
dates with different formats.
There's no need for any confusion if we specify the revision date, so
let's do so.

The hacks to add version information to the man pages comes from 2007
7ef195ba3e (Documentation: Add version information to man pages,
2007-03-25). In that code we passed three fields to DocBook Stylesheets:
`source`, `version`, and `manual`, however, all the stylesheets do is
join the strings `source` and `version` [1].
Their own documentation explains that in pracice the source is just a
combination of two fields [2]:
In practice, there are many pages that simply have a version number in
the "source" field.
Splitting that information might have seemed more proper in 2007, but it
not achieve anything in practice.
Asciidoctor had support for this information in their manpage backend
since day 1: v1.5.3 (2015), but it didn't include the version. In the
docbook5 backend they did in v1.5.7 (2018), but again: no version.
There is no need for us to demand that that they add support for the
version field when in reality all that is going to happen is that both
fields are going to be joined.
Let's do that ourselves so we can forget about all our hacks for this
and so it works for both asciidoc.py, and docbook5 and manpage backends
of asciidoctor.

As discussed in t/README, tests should aim to use PERL_PATH rather than
straight "perl". We usually do this automatically with a "perl" function
in test-lib.sh, but a few cases need to be handled specially.
One such case is the apply-one-time-perl.sh CGI, which invokes plain
"perl". It should be using $PERL_PATH, but to make that work, we must
also instruct Apache to pass through the variable.
Prior to this patch, doing:
mv /usr/bin/perl /usr/bin/my-perl
make PERL_PATH=/usr/bin/my-perl test
would fail t5702, t5703, and t5616. After this it passes. This is a
pretty extreme case, as even if you install perl elsewhere, you'd likely
still have it in your $PATH. A more realistic case is that you don't
want to use the perl in your $PATH (because it's older, broken, etc) and
expect PERL_PATH to consistently override that (since that's what it's
documented to do). Removing it completely is just a convenient way of
completely breaking it for testing purposes.

In 2007 we added a custom header macro to provide version information
7ef195ba3e (Documentation: Add version information to man pages,
2007-03-25),
However, in 2008 asciidoc added the attributes to do this properly [1].
This was not implemented in Git until 2019: 226daba280 (Doc/Makefile:
give mansource/-version/-manual attributes, 2019-09-16).
But in 2023 we are doing it properly, so there's no need for the custom
macro.

A user could prepare an empty repository and set it to use SHA256 as
the object format. The new repository created by "git clone" from
such a repository however would not record that it is expecting
objects in the same SHA256 format. This works as expected if the
source repository is not empty.
Just like we started copying the name of the primary branch from the
remote repository even if it is unborn in 3d8314f8 (clone: propagate
empty remote HEAD even with other branches, 2022-07-07), lift the
code that records the object format out of the block executed only
when cloning from an instantiated repository, so that it works also
when cloning from an empty repository.
