contrib: add placeholder manpage for bitcoin binary
What changed, and why it matters
This commit adds a placeholder manual page file for the bitcoin binary. It contains only documentation text and instructions for generating real manpages later. There is no executable code, no configuration change, and no security relevance.
No action required; this is a benign documentation-only change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff creates doc/man/bitcoin.1 with a 5-line groff manpage placeholder. It does not modify source code, build scripts, network behavior, cryptography, or permissions. It is purely documentation infrastructure.
