man: add udev.conf(5)
We generally have separate man pages for all configuration files. In this case udev.conf was already described in systemd-udevd.service(8), but it was hard to find. Docbook makes it hard to add a .so link from a different section, so describe udev.conf in its own page. Signedaoff-by: Anthony G. Basile <blueness@gentoo.org>
