This too is part of preparation for fixing issue #8.

This is part of the preparation for fixing issue #8.

  - Mention that "#" is a comment character.
  - Mention that --show-parameters is a good place to start.
  - Document the --show-parameters option in the option listing.

Thanks to Greg Troxel for pointing out the deficiencies.

Thanks to Greg Troxel, who reported this bug for the param file, in
the course of fixing which I realized it applied also to input file.

Thanks to Greg Troxel for the bug report.

This change shows empty output from 'svn diff -x -b', and the test
suite still passes.

Thanks to Greg Troxel for the patch, and for testing on macOS.

Thanks to Mike Pilato for sending this:

(With a few tweaks by Karl Fogel.)

* labelnation
  (make_labels): Take new min_label_lines parameter.
  (main): Take new --min-label-lines option, parse it, pass it.
  (usage): Document the new option.

* Makefile (index): Compute last mod date, and substitute it in...

* index.html-top: ...new date placeholder string.

* labelnation (explain): Update for new --csv option.

* index.html-top: Note that csv_to_ln is obsolete.

(This idea is based on the -n option to cvs_to_ln.)

* labelnation
  (main, usage): Add and document new --leading-spaces option.
  (make_labels): Take it as a parameter, use it.

* tests/csv-multipage-leading-spaces-via-cmd: New test for above.

an option to specify leading number of spaces so spaces do not have to
be included in the CSV data itself (like the -n option to cvs_to_ln).

* labelnation: Import csv module.
  (main, usage): Add and document new --csv / --csv-input option.
  (make_labels): Handle CSV input.

* tests/csv-multipage-leading-spaces-in-input: New test for CSV input.

* labelnation
  (parse_param_file): Tolerate colons and blank lines, so that the
    output of --show-parameters can be used directly as input via
    '--parameter-file'.
  (make_labels): Issue a warning if it looks like the user forgot to
    pass the '--delimiter' option.
