Minor FAQ nit


Hi.

Getting ready to update from 2-1-branch to 2.2 (head), I was refreshing my
wetware copy of the FAQ, and noticed this in section 2.16:

	See also question question 2.31.

Turns out that FAQ.in provides the word "question" before the
cross-reference token, but scripts/gen-FAQ.pl also provides the word
"question" in the expansion of the cross-reference token.  This occurs
twice.

A trivial patch, which assumes the script correct and FAQ.in incorrect:
