+Added target `verify-version-news` which checks that the first line\r
+in NEWS file has the following properties:\r
+ First word is 'Notmuch'\r
+ Second "word" matches the current version\r
+ Rest of line is in format (201[2-9]-[01][0-9]-[0-3][0-9]\r
+---\r
+\r
+Tested by executing the following commands:\r
+ make verify-version-news\r
+ make verify-version-news VERSION=0.13\r
+ make verify-version-news VERSION=0.12\r
