[trunk+v3] RedBoot tweaks


* doc/redboot_cmds.sgml: Add note concerning the termination of
  ELF downloads once all relevant sections have been transferred.
  [ Bugzilla 1000711 ]

* doc/redboot_main.sgml: Update copyright notice.

* src/main.c (do_baud_rate): Wait for 10s when changing serial
  baud to accommodate terminal emulators which do not provide
  rapid access to this parameter.

* src/main.c (do_version): Tidy RAM availability message.
  [ Bugzilla 1000712 ]

Checked-in.

 	* src/io.c: Better handling of history - commands now have
 	a [fixed] virtual number over time.  This makes !nn work correctly.
 	Fixes BZ#1000714

+When downloading an ELF image, RedBoot will forcibly terminate the transfer
+once all the relevant (loadable) ELF sections have been received. This
+behaviour reduces download time when using the X/Y modem protocol
+over a slow serial connection. However, the terminal emulator may report
+that the transfer is incomplete and has been cancelled. Such messages
+are normal and may be ignored.
