Bug fix release, mainly to solve CUPS performance problems caused by the IPP fax support of the "driverless" utility

driverless: Avoid duplicate PPD list entries from the same device via UUID
driverless: Reduce ippfind calls by "driverless" and "driverless-fax"called by CUPS. Let "driverless list" list both print and fax PPDs and "driverless-fax list" do nothing.
driverless: Avoid duplicate listings in printer discovery, by "driverless-fax" not listing any URI as "driverless" lists them all already.
driverless: Vastly improve performance by doing only one ippfind call instead of two (IPP, IPPS) as ippfind accepts more than one reg type on the command line.
Sample PPDs: Corrected manufacturer name in Fuji_Xerox-DocuPrint_CM305_df-PDF.ppd.
