Summary: command line binaries should support --version and --help

Initial Comment:
As detailed at http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Command_002dLine-Interfaces.html ,
it's a good idea for command line programs to support the --version and --help command line options.  It's easier to find out what version a program is via --version than via rpm -q, where the name of the rpm may not match the name of the program.

It should be trivial to add these to both the C and the python programs in policycoreutils.
