This patch is proposed to solve Ticket #1 [1672486] (command line binaries should support --version and --help). It adds handling of -h, -V and the long formats --help and --version to all binaries (checkpolicy/checkmodule). It also adds handling of long options for some of the available options. Manual pages have also been updated accordingly (and a few undocumented options have been documented). Guido Trentalancia Signed-off-by: Joshua Brindle <method@manicmethod.com>
