rABC34d17836c83e: [CI] Continuously update the man pages

Summary

The automated man pages update is currently not fully automated, and is
triggered manually before each release. We can just update the man pages
as soon as they change so are always up-to-date.

Test Plan

  ./contrib/source-control-tools/automated-commits.sh -p master

Repeat a few times and check the script skip committing as needed.

I talked with Fabien about this. Originally I did not take this route because I worried there would be too much noise. But as Fabien pointed out to me, only version numbers, chainparams, and newly added args should trigger an update to the manpages. We'll see how this goes in practice.
