Summary description:  Fetch the current class name

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

 With standard LaTeX you are able to check for the class in use
 invoking the kernel command `\@ifclassloaded`.
 However, doing so you can't get the explicit class name
 (unless you want to loop over every possible class name
 until `\@ifclassloaded` returns true -- don't do that!)
 With the present package you can get the name with significantly less effort.

 Just load the package as usual: \usepackage{fetchcls}

 Then, the control sequence `\classname` will hold the name of the current class.
