[drupal-docs] Tag handbook pages with major versions

[Bèr Kessels]

Taxonomy pages will not be usefull, indeed. Still this is teh easiest way to 
get there. 
The other options are in-body text (ugly) or a big rewrite of book (far too 
high aim).

PLease, if we want to go trough with this, it must at least be doable ;)
