Add 3type to default section list
This is used by the Linux man-pages package, and should be lower
priority than section 2. Suggested by Alejandro Colomar.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/cjwatson/man-db/-/issues/5.
* include/manconfig.h (STD_SECTIONS): Add `3type` between sections `2`
and `5`.
* m4/man-arg-sections.m4 (MAN_ARG_SECTIONS): Likewise.
* man/man5/manpath.man5 (FORMAT): Update documentation of SECTION.
* src/tests/man-exact-section-matches: Update default section order.
* src/man_db.conf.in (SECTION): Update documentation.
* NEWS.md: Document this.
