web-based manpage version?

Hi all--

I just noticed (from interactions on IRC) that the web-based manual page
for GnuPG isn't clear about which version of GnuPG it documents:

     https://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manpage.html

I believe it's either from the "classic" or "stable" branch, but it
doesn't say so explicitly.  As a result, it documents things like
"--force-v3-sigs" even though the "modern" branch of GnuPG explicitly
says:

>        --force-v3-sigs
>        --no-force-v3-sigs
> 
>        --force-v4-certs
>        --no-force-v4-certs
>                These options are obsolete and have no effect since GnuPG 2.1.


How is the web-based manpage maintained?  Can we update it to contain
relevant information like the above option deprecation?
