[Bug 1098531] [NEW] Wrong path to global config files mentioned in man page

Public bug reported:

The FILES section of the zsh(1) man page (and probably other zsh man-
pages and documentation, too) lists the wrong paths to the global zsh
configuration files.

>From zsh(1) on Ubuntu Precise (4.3.17-1ubuntu1):

       /etc/zshenv
       /etc/zprofile
       /etc/zshrc
       /etc/zlogin
       /etc/zlogout

Those files are not directly under /etc/ but under /etc/zsh/.

>From zsh(1) on Debian Wheezy (4.3.17-1):

       /etc/zsh/zshenv
       /etc/zsh/zprofile
       /etc/zsh/zshrc
       /etc/zsh/zlogin
       /etc/zsh/zlogout

The paths are correct on Debian, hence this issue is specific to Ubuntu.
