base: Rename (mcron core) module to (mcron base).
The 'configure' script deletes the 'core.*' files. Having a file named 'base.scm' instead of 'core.scm' simplifies the build process without changing the semantics. * src/mcron/mcron-core.scm: Rename to ... * src/mcron/base.scm: ... this. All module users changed. * Makefile.am (MODULES): Add 'src/mcron/base.scm'. (CP): Remove variable. (src/mcron/core.scm): Remove target. (GEN_MODULES): Remove 'src/mcron/core.scm'. (dist_mcronmodule_DATA): Remove 'src/mcron/mcron-core.scm' * doc/mcron.texi: Adapt to name change. * .gitignore: Update.
