Tested tools and submission server under IOCCC29 conditions.

update collect.sh to use chkentry -S -q -I .num.sh

add -v 5 debugging to sbin/update_reg.sh

Changed VERSION to "2.2.1 2025-11-17".

improve update_reg.sh debugging

The sbin/update_reg.sh tool will call sbin/who_extract.sh
with -v level when the level is > 0.

The sbin/who_email.awk is more robust on looking
for the initial "who" line.

The sbin/who_extract.sh when debug level is >= 5
will run the sbin/who_email.awk first with a -v debug=level value.

Updated sbin/update_reg.sh VERSION to "2.2.2 2025-11-17".
Updated bin/who_email.awk VERSION to "2.0.1 2025-11-17".
Updated sbin/who_extract.sh VERSION to "2.2.1 2025-11-17".
