CH.airebo in bench/POTENTIALS of 7Aug19

Dear developers of LAMMPS

I found a minor error of a test potential file
running potential benchmark, AIREBO, in LAMMPS-7Aug19:

------- start logfile -------

ERROR on proc 0: Potential file does not match AIREBO/REBO style variant (../pair_airebo.cpp:3400)
Last command: pair_coeff * * CH.airebo C H
------- end logfile -------

This is because the error checker in PairAIREBO::read_file
correctly works in the latest version. It was avoided
simply changing the header part of
bench/POTENTIALS/CH.airebo, from

# AI-REBO Brenner/Stuart potential
# need to cite the appropriate papers here

to

# initial comment
# AIREBO Brenner/Stuart potential
# need to cite the appropriate papers here

Kind regards,
Yukihiro Ota

thanks for letting us know. this will be resolved in a future patch release of LAMMPS.
