bootstrap: specify particular version in buildreq with =x.y.

* gl/build-aux/bootstrap.in (func_check_versions): If the version
number begins with '=' then it must match the installed version of
the named tool exactly.
* gl/doc/bootstrap.texi (buildreq): Document the '=vernum' feature.
* bootstrap: Regenerate.

@ -82,6 +82,11 @@ requirement for Autobuild is added automatically, and finally if there
are any diff files under @code{local_gl_dir}, then a versionless
requirement for patch is also added.
When there are backwards incompatibilities in a newer build-tool
release, you can pin the version requirement for your program by
prefixing the version number field in buildreq with a single '='
character (no spaces).
When @command{bootstrap} is invoked, it will check that all the listed
and automatically added tools are available at the given minimum version,
or else bail out with a diagnostic.
