config.status --version

[Lars J. Aas]

With the risk of starting another jihad - here goes ;)

This patch makes the `config.status --version' response conform
with the GNU Coding Standards and follows the convention used for
`configure --version'.  The nature of `config.status' stretches
the version information heading to the limit though, but it's not
really that bad. :-|

  $ ./config.status --version
  GNU Autoconf config.status 2.49e
  generated automatically by GNU Autoconf configure 2.49e
  which was generated by GNU Autoconf 2.49e
  and invoked on nfs.trh.sim.no with the command line
    $ ../autoconf/configure

This seems extra weird since it is config.status for the GNU Autoconf
project - for other projects the information will not seem *that*
redundant.

        * acgeneral.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_CONFIG_STATUS): Make version
        information for `config.status --version' conform with the
        standards.
