Change syntax of CWE mapping reports for CWE hierarchies (use "!" for map)
...
- The old syntax was very confusing. Now just report
higher-level/lower-level, with "!" after the CWE that is actually
the mapping.

flawfinder: Improve error-handling. Warn of non-existent files (esp long dash)
...
- Provide a separate warning for filenames listed on the command line
but do not actually exist.
- Provide a SPECIAL warning for filenames that begin with
the UTF-8 sequence of long dashes. Users might
copy-and-paste from the pdf version of the man page, and that might
produce long dashes (instead of normal dashes). This problem
can be hard to detect, so specially warning about it should help.

...
- Modify makefile to support GNU convention makefile variable names,
including prefix, bindir, datarootdir, mandir, and man1dir.
It is tweaked so that the older variable names (e.g., INSTALL_DIR)
will continue to work.
- DESTDIR support added.
- Predefined a useful INSTALL_PROGRAM makefile variable; that means
that users can redefine it if they want.
