Encapsulate all the strangeness to do with finding out where to find RDoc files

We basically deal with three directories:

  1. The ‘system’ documentation directory, which holds the documentation

distributed with Ruby, and which is managed by the Ruby install process
  1. The ‘site’ directory, which contains site-wide documentation added

locally.
  1. The ‘user’ documentation directory, stored under the user’s own home

directory.

There’s contention about all this, but for now:

system

$datadir/ri/<ver>/system/…

site

$datadir/ri/<ver>/site/…

user

~/.rdoc
