  and updated -export-symbols
* doc/libtool.texi (script contents): documented
  always_export_symbols, export_symbols_cmd, exclude_expsyms,
  include_expsyms, dlopen and dlopen_self
  more detailed description of need_lib_prefix
* ltconfig.in: a "'" was missing in the default value
  of export_symbols_cmd
* ltmain.in: implemented -export-symbols-regex
