- if a parameter is not supported by the system, the note action
  'verify' will no longer report this as an error even if the value
  is not compliant.
  Additionally if there is a non compliant 'grub' parameter, which
  has a compliant 'alternative' setting availabel (see man page 
  saptune-note(5) for details), the note action 'verify' will no
  longer report this as an error
  (bsc#1159671)

- add action 'delete' to the 'note' operation to delete a customer
  or vendor specific Note definition file including the
  corresponding override file if available.
  A confirmation is needed to finish the action.

add action 'rename' to the 'note' operation to rename a customer
  or vendor specific Note definition file to a new name. If a
  corresponding override file is available, this file will be
  renamed too. A confirmation is needed to finish the action.

If the Note is already applied, the action will be terminated
  with the information, that the Note first needs to be reverted
  before it can be deleted or renamed.

- Inform the customer that - by intention - the command 
         'saptune note customise <NoteID>'
  does not apply changes immediately. It just changes the
  configuration in the 'override' file. These changes have to be
  applied in a second step.
  This is explained in the man page saptune_v2(8) and a message is
  printed in the logs and on the screen to inform the customer.
