[Libreoffice-qa] Extensive docx conversion tests...

[Jay Philips]

Hi Roopesh,

Just did some testing of my own and you had the version numbering wrong 
as MS Office 2013 is 15.0, MS Office 2010 is 14.0 and MS Office 2007 is 
12.0. I checked the output of files from office.com and they had 00.0001.
