PATCH 1/1 e100, e1000, ixgb: add MODULE_VERSION tags

Patch below adds MODULE_VERSION tags to the e100, e1000, and ixgb drivers. Tools like DKMS will make use of this information to determine if a given driver is older or newer than another given driver based on this version number.

I had recently posted patches to this effect for e100, e1000 (nearly identical to yours) and several others. I did not, however, include ixgb, so I'm sure that one will be quite welcome! :-)
