btrfs-progs: docs: fix build due to phony contents.rst 

[BUG]
Since commit 8049446bb0 ("btrfs-progs: docs: placeholder for
contents.rst file on older sphinx version"), on systems with much newer
sphinx-build, "make" would not work for Documentation directory:

  $ make clean-all && ./autogen.sh && ./configure --prefix=/usr/ && make -j12
  $ ls -alh Documentation/_build
  ls: cannot access 'Documentation/_build': No such file or directory

The sphinx-build has a much newer version:

  $ sphinx-build --version
  sphinx-build 7.2.6

[CAUSE]
On systems which don't need the workaround, the phony target of
contents.rst seems to cause a dependency loop:

All the default make doing is just try to generate contents.rst, but
since we have much newer version, we won't generate the file at all.

[FIX]
Instead of a phony target, just move the contents.rst generation into
man page target so that we won't cause loop target on contents.rst.
