Patch rtemsdoc-4.5.0-rc-8.diff from Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>.

Ralf's comments follow:

  Changes:
    * Enhanced versioning:
      - Addition of automake's version.texi support
      - Replacement of rtemsdoc's former versioning support by automake's
        versioning support (Abandoning RTEMS-UPDATE-* etc.)
      - Abandoning setup.texi.in
      - Add EDITION to each documents Makefile.am
      - version.texi support in project.am
      - Addition of maintainer mode (currently only used to prevent incorrectly
        updating timestamps when users touch automake's version.texi timestamp
        files (stamp-vti)).

    * Fixing info dir support
      - Use texinfo's @dircategory and @direntry instead of infos *-DIR-ENTRY
      - $(infodir)/dir is now correctly set up

    * Avoid using temporary files
      - Pipe texts through REPLACE2 into BMENU2 instead of using temporary files.
      - Abandon using bmenu in favor of bmenu2 (bmenu could be removed now)

    * Prepare Makefile.ams for building in a separate buildtree
      - prefix files with $(srcdir) in Makefile.am for files which must be
        generated inside of the source tree

  Notes:
    * rtemsdoc can not yet be build in a separate source-tree, but we
      are very close to it.
    * You as the maintainer of this package now should always use
      --enable-maintainer-mode to configure rtemsdoc.
