When building from the head of a branch a release number is
automatically generated with `git describe` using the last tag
on that branch as the base. For this to work the last tag on the
branch needs to be predictable given the current META file.
This logic was accidentally broken when an -rcX tag was added to
the branch. Update it to search for a VERSION or VERSION-RELEASE
tag.

When creating packages in a git repository the release number
can be automatically set by 'git describe'. This normally works
well but if your repository has newer tags which match the form
NAME-VERSION* the release may be incorrectly calculated. To
prevent this the match patten has been restricted to NAME-VERSION.

When building a custom release in a git tree provide the ability
to prevent the release field from being overwritten by the
`git describe` output.

The only remaining perl dependency is part of the SPL_AC_META macro.
By eliminating this and replacing it with awk we can avoid the need
to pull in perl to rebuild the packages.

When building from an arbitrary commit in the git tree it's useful
for the resulting packages to be uniquely identifiable. Therefore,
the build system has been updated to detect if your compiling in
git tree.
If you are building in a git tree, and there are commits after the
last annotated tag. Then the <id>-<hash> component of 'git describe'
will be used to overwrite the 'Release:' field in the META file.
The only tricky part is that to ensure the 'make dist' tarball is
built using the correct release. A dist-hook was added to the top
level make file to rewrite the META file using the correct release.

Issue #111
Refresh the existing RPM packaging to conform to the 'Fedora
Packaging Guidelines'. This includes adopting the kmods2
packaging standard which is used fod kmods distributed by
rpmfusion for Fedora/RHEL.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelineshttp://rpmfusion.org/Packaging/KernelModules/Kmods2
While the spec files have been entirely rewritten from a
user perspective the only major changes are:
* The Fedora packages now have a build dependency on the
rpmfusion repositories. The generic kmod packages also
have a new dependency on kmodtool-1.22 but it is bundled
with the source rpm so no additional packages are needed.
* The kernel binary module packages have been renamed from
spl-modules-* to kmod-spl-* as specificed by kmods2.
* The is now a common kmod-spl-devel-* package in addition
to the per-kernel devel packages. The common package
contains the development headers while the per-kernel
package contains kernel specific build products.

Updated AUTHORS, COPYING, DISCLAIMER, and INSTALL files. Added
standardized headers to all source file to clearly indicate the
copyright, license, and to give credit where credit is due.
We need dependent packages to be able to include spl_config.h so they
can leverage the configure checks the SPL has done. This is important
because several of the spl headers need the results of these checks to
work properly. Unfortunately, the autoheader build product is always
private to a particular build and defined certain common things.
(PACKAGE, VERSION, etc). This prevents other packages which also use
autoheader from being include because the definitions conflict. To
avoid this problem the SPL build system leverage AH_BOTTOM to include
a spl_unconfig.h at the botton of the autoheader build product. This
custom include undefs all known shared symbols to prevent the confict.
This does however mean that those definition are also not availble
to the SPL package either. The SPL package therefore uses the
equivilant SPL_META_* definitions.
