[PATCH] ver_linux: add comparison with required version and colour to output

[Manuel Ebner]

Add the required version from changes.rst.
Add code for comparison and print in colour (blue, green, red) depending
on the result of the comparison.

I had this patch on my mind for more than half a year. I was convinced I
couldn't do it because awk is such a special language. Took me less than
an hour without AI - WTF

Somehow I messed up the formating of the output. I guess it's this lines
+		ofmt = "%-20s\t%s\n"
but I couldn't figure it out :(
