Previously, we used `git describe --tags` to produce a version number
for non-released builds derived from the most recent tag + some info
such as the number of commits since that tag and then `g{HASH}`.
That always confuses people because the date portion at the front
looks old (it is typically the previous release) and the hash at
the end has that `g` in it.
This commit simplifies both the tag name used when making a release
and the computed version number take the date/time from the current
commit, and then append the hash. That way the version number always
corresponds to a commit.
This scheme doesn't help detect situations where the commit is
dirty, but I don't think the old one would have helped with that
either.
CI got broken by the termwiz release. This commit teaches the
various `git describe --tags` calls to filter to the wezterm
tags which all start with the year. We're match `20*` which should
be good for the next 79 years.
I've removed the vergen dependency as there was no way to teach it
to do the equivalent matching, and it wasn't a terrible burden
to just inline the git describe call anyway.
Rather than scanning directories and reading in ~230 files on startup,
do the scan at build time so that we're parsing from memory rather
than local storage.
This should shave a bit of time off the startup, although I
haven't measured this, and I've only run this on a remote
linux system thus far.

This is untested beyond eyeballing the locally generated file.
Will need to make a couple of tags to test this for sure.

I've been meaning to do this for a while: the intended purpose
is to use this to filter ansi escape sequences out of the prompt
in the shell pre-command hook.
