versions.pri: Read version numbers from header files
The build_version.py script was improved to allow reading version number information for all the components directly from header files.
When build_version.py is invoked from the command line, it expects to be given a header file name as the only argument. When imported as a module, it finds the Doomsday version and exports it as global variables.
build_number.py was changed so that it only prints the build number if given the --print argument. By default it can be imported as a module and the todays_build() function returns the build number as a string.
