Multiple documentation dirs created by MPFR

Description

In the MPFR instructions, after installing, LFS says to create /usr/share/doc/mpfr-[version] and copy some files there. However, MPFR itself creates a docdir, which by default is /usr/share/doc/mpfr, and puts a few things in there. This can be fixed by adding --docdir=/usr/share/doc/mpfr-&mpfr-version; to configure, and of course removing the now-redundant command to create that directory.

Also, since the MPFR install already copies FAQ.html, the command to copy the docs (currently a find command) could be simplified to "cp -v mpfr.html/*.html /usr/share/doc/mpfr-&mpfr-version;"

Actually, the find/cp to install the docs could simply be replaced with "make install-html".
