P2 Badge Install man pages, not just man-db

When this definition is built from the Debian-based node:24 image, the base image's dpkg Docker config still excludes /usr/share/man/*, and this apt command also keeps --no-install-recommends; as a result this adds /usr/bin/man but continues discarding the manual-page files for man-db, jq, curl, etc. In the rebuilt mqyolo image, common checks like man man or man jq still have no manual entry, so the stated goal of making manuals available is not met unless the dpkg exclude is removed before installing/reinstalling the relevant manpage packages.
