This fixes the current syntax highlighting behavior in the 'options'

Add "--help"/"-h" and "--version"/"-V" support to all contrib scripts.
Also, update scripts that used "-v" as a short option for "--version"
and use "-V" for the sake of consistency.
Additionally:
* Move version and usage messages to separate convenience functions in
all scripts.
* Add a workaround to paccache to support "--help" and "--version". This
should be replaced by a proper POSIX-compliant command line parser
that supports long options in a future patch.
* Add a "$myver" variable to all scripts and use it whenever we refer to
the program version (e.g. in version messages). Also, use the pacman
version number everywhere instead of using a different versioning
scheme for each contrib script. This is achieved by adding a
"PACKAGE_VERSION" placeholder that is replaced by sed(1) when the
script is built.
* Ensure we always return with exit status 0 if "--help" is used and
return with exit status 1 if we display the usage message due to
invalid arguments.
* Add "AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = std-options" and add all scripts to
"bin_SCRIPTS" to make `make installcheck` check that installed scripts
actually support the "--help" and "--version" options.

The original code- pkg_dir="$(echo $pac_db/$pkg_name-[0-9]*)" is
problematic in several ways:
- $pac_db and $pkg_name should be quoted, obviously.
- It assumes pkgver always starts with an integer, while in fact
it just can't contain ':' and '-'.
Counterexample: the code breaks on lshw B.02.15-1.
- It assumes there are no more than one directory matching the
pattern. While this should be the case if everything works
perfectly, it certainly relies on external conditions.
Counterexample: if the local db contains two packages named
foo and foo-3g, even if everything else is perfect, the code
will match two directories.

pretty and also inconsistent with the handling of install files, but it

With the introduction of split PKGBUILDs, however, a drawback in this
old behavior has arisen: you only have the possibility to include one
specific changelog file in either every package defined in the PKGBUILD
or in none.
