Bug description:
  [impact]

  'man systemd-resolve' fails

  [test case]

  $ man systemd-resolve
  No manual entry for systemd-resolve

  [regression potential]

  incorrect man page result for resolvectl or resolvconf, or possibly
  users using deprecated systemd-resolve longer than they should

  [scope]

  this is needed in f and later

  systemd-resolve was replaced with resolvectl between b and f, so the
  man page exists in b

  [other info]

  the systemd-resolve binary is a symlink to the real binary resolvectl, and users should use resolvectl for all new uses. A patch to the upstream man page was proposed and merged in this PR:
  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/20064

  however that is being discussed and may be reverted in this PR:
  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/20077

  as discussed in the revert PR, it's ok for upstream to elide docs
  about deprecated tooling; however distros should include deprecation
  info and thus I believe it's appropriate to include the man page
  symlink so users trying 'man systemd-resolve' will get the correct
  'resolvectl' man page, which includes doc about how they shoudl start
  using 'resolvectl' instead

  [original description]

  On my Focal machine there is no file /usr/share/man/man1/systemd-resolve.1.gz
  This means that man systemd-resolve fails.

  http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/en/man1/systemd-
  resolve.1.html exists and has a link on top to 20.04LTS: it points to
  http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/focal/en/man1/systemd-
  resolve.1.html , that however 404's, and one ends up being redirected
  to Bionic's.
