Summary: remove the hyphen from the project name

Initial Comment:
I move the renaming of the project from re-alpine to realpine.

Rationale:
puns and abiguous naming of software have a long tradition in hacker culture.

By removing the hyphen, the name could either interpreted as re(born)-alpine, suggesting the alpine heritage as originally suggested by Andraz Levstik, or real-pine suggesting UW pine heritage.

Also, real pine smells nice.

Now, I know it's immature, trivial, unimportant, not worth the effort etc, but please, could we at least have the /binary/ be called realpine instead of re-alpine? To me, hyphenated commands feel very awkward when they could be one word.

PS: I don't speak autotools very well but I would be willing to try to come
up with the necessary changes if this is at all considered.
