automatically regenerate database before making format

automatically regenerate database before making format

[Mojca Miklavec]

Hans,

you already check if the format is old and automatically launch the
equivalent of "context --make" if existing format is outdated. Why not
also automatically updating the database just before regenerating the
format?

And while at it, try update the database when "context" script is not
found (which is one of the frequently occurring issues and the error
message don't give much clue).
