[PATCH] make package.el more distribution-friendly |

This trivial patch allows to redistribute package.el outside of emacs
more easily by:
- making the dependency to tabulated-list.el explicit
- giving a version number to tabulated-list.el
The former is not very important, but without the latter we can't
reliably backport tabulated-list.el and/or depend on it in packages for
older Emacsen without risking to mask the built-in one when installing
packages that depend on it.
The curent workaround is to depend on version "0" of tabulated-list, but
that's ugly and means that basically we can't make it evolve. Generally
speaking, all built-in packages should have version numbers.
