In the "Yet another refdes_renum" category ...

I should be able to release my attempt sometime this week. I just want to verify
that the ordinals of refdes's that have a suffix (i.e. C1a, C1b) get renumbered
properly.

To not conflict with refdes_renum I am calling my program refdes-update.
The command line options will be ---

\begin{description}
\item[clear] Resets all refdes ordinal strings to a question mark
  '{\bf?}' character.
\item[list] Outputs a list, to {\bf STDOUT}, of refdes's that were
  found in each schematic.
\item[verbose] Sundry annoying messages.
\item[dryrun] Outputs a list of actions to be taken without performing
  them.
\item[reuse] Reuses refdes ordinals that were skipped in each
  schematic.
\item[update] Only change refdes's were the ordinal is not defined.
\item[renum] Change all refdes's
\item[pageoffset] The offset added to the refdes ordinal is
  $(pagenumber - 1)\cdot pageoffset$.  Each schematic specified on the
  commandline is considered a page.
\end{description}
