We had this interesting set of facts conundrum, according to vercmp
return values:
2.0a < 2.0
2.0 < 2.0.a
2.0a == 2.0.a
This introduces a code change that ensures '2.0a < 2.0.a' as would be
expected by the first two comparisons. Unfortunately this stays us a bit
further from upstream RPM code, but those are the breaks (in RPM, the
versions involving 'a' do in fact compare the same, but they are both
greater than the bare '2.0').

This gets us close to using the same modeline in all files we run
through Asciidoc, as well as adding the spell and spelllang
declarations, just as we had in NEWS already.
The choice of 'en_us' is mainly for consistency and because the body of
work already uses these spellings.

This includes info on version comparison that is very similar to the stuff
in the pacman manpage, but also a few vercmp examples, the return values,
and other fun stuff.
Also update the version comparison stuff in the pacman manpage.
