Release | rc6 Broken Process of the VERSION file (#8)

[Joel Sherrill (@joel)]

Joel Sherrill created an issue: https://gitlab.rtems.org/rtems/rtos/rtems-release/-/issues/8

Assignee: Kinsey Moore

## Summary
Every invocation of waf from the rtems source tree out of the rc6 tarball fails. @opticron says the VERSION file is using the wrong section names and key names.

This will have to be fixed on main as well.

```
[joel at gitlab rtems-6.1-rc6]$ ./waf distclean
