Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] new: Add a new parameter (copyright-owner) in the "new" script

This patch another optional interactive prompt to enter the
copyright-owner for each new test file that is created using
the "new" file.

The sample output looks like something like the following:

./new selftest
Next test id is 007
Append a name to the ID? Test name will be 007-$name. y,[n]:
Creating test file '007'
Add to group(s) [auto] (separate by space, ? for list): selftest quick
Enter <copyright owner>: IBM Corporation
Creating skeletal script for you to edit ...
 done.
