Using the -a option with makewhatis(8) makes it scan every file under the configured manpaths, instead of only the ones in directories that match "man*". When localized man pages are present, this makes it so files under the "$some_lang/man*" directories are also indexed, which can lead, as shown in #28146, to `man w3m` displaying a localized man page instead of the default english one from /usr/share/man/man1/w3m.1. Without a mandoc.db in the manpath, man(1) behaves predictably, and removing from -a from the makewhatis(8) invocations makes it behave predictably even with a mandoc.db available. Users who wish to use localized man pages are expected to configure manpaths in man.conf(5) or use the MANPATH env var. Fixes #28146
