One possibility is that kramdown-rfc ought to look for, and include the
latest foo-YYYY-MM-DD.yang file, when told to ::include foo.yang.
Alternatively, it could perhaps do the YYYY-MM-DD substitution itself.

That's mostly just a question about including the results, and it's not that
hard thing to add to the main Makefile.

But, as I said, I xml2rfc doesn't have a useful include functionality, for
when not working with kramdown.
