Suggestion for nsedoc

I use a rudimentary, manual version history for the little nse script
I did (started at 1.0.0.0, now at 1.4.0.0).

It helps me keep track of when I made changes and lets me back up to
old revisions if I need to after totally screwing something up.

I think it would be nice if there was a @version tag available in
nsedoc to keep track of the version number.

It would help folks discover if there is a newer version available
from the nmap site compared to the one they are running and might make
it easier to troubleshoot things and keep track of fixes.

As more scripts get submitted and updated, keeping revisions straight
*outside of* svn might be a good thing to have.

It would benefit granular updates of specific scripts that have tweaks
applied without needing a full release of nmap.
