Hi,
In the interest of getting the version patch in and the release notes renamed
I'm going to drop this part of the patchset and resubmit 1/3 and 3/3. If we
want to rework the version output we can do it in a separate patch.
I am going to maintain the zero padding of the month so that it appear as 16.04
and not 16.4 in "make showversion" and rte_version().

I'm also going to make this change "en passant" since it makes sense and is
in the same file. The version outputs now look like this:
$ make showversion
16.04.0-rc0
RTE>> version_autotest
Version string: 'DPDK 16.04.0-rc0'
Note, if the s/RTE/DPDK/ change breaks anyone's parsing of output for tests
or otherwise, let me know.
John.
