This optional dependency is now finally dropped. So ends a long journey
of trying to generate man pages in a lightweight and dependable way. The
only thing I could figure out how to make work reliably was to just
learn how to write roff myself. Yay.
This commit updates the Ubuntu install script to include brotli and
zstd, which are needed for tests.
We also fix the Ubuntu install script to work in environments that
don't have 'sudo'. Instead of creating a totally separate script, we
preserve a single point of truth for these things and just make the
script a bit more flexible.
NOT seen in this commit is that we have built and updated the arm Docker
image. I'm hoping this fixes the GLIBC version issues we're seeing in
CI.
Fixes#2130, Closes#2132
