Re: --no-handle-help|version

Hi

I added the --no-help and --no-version options for gengetopt that avoid 
automatically generating --help and --version

I've committed the modifications in the CVS or you can find a temporary 
version here:

http://rap.dsi.unifi.it/~bettini/gengetopt-2.22b.tar.gz

look forward to getting feedback :-)
cheers
