(vc-backend-checkin): For CVS, forget the checkout model after commit.

(vc-backend-checkout): Use "cvs edit" for files with manual checkout.
(vc-minor-part, vc-previous-version): New functions.
(vc-diff): Don't ask or guess version numbers.
(vc-version-diff): Suggest default versions based on the file state.
