set version number of configuration file

        version
        5

## Description

The `version` helper command states the configuration file version.

If the value passed is newer than the running version of Sanewall supports, Sanewall will not run.

You do not have to specify a version number for a configuration file, but by doing so you will prevent Sanewall trying to process a file which it cannot handle.

The value that Sanewall expects is increased every time that the configuration file format changes.
