Stamp the git tag or short commit into the binary (closes #4)
check / check (push) Waiting to run

A plain `docker build .` now stamps bsdaily's version: the VERSION
build argument when one is given, otherwise `git describe --tags
--always` on the .git in the build context, as the canonical
Dockerfile does. The build fails if .git is there and the version
still comes out empty, dev or unknown. A host `make` build stamps the
same `git describe`, or dev. bsdaily logs the version on the first
line of every run and prints it with --version; a build that stamps
nothing, or an empty value, reports dev.

Judgement call: the build line also takes the canonical -trimpath and
-s -w.
One //nolint (gochecknoglobals): -X can only set a package-level
variable.

The version is set at link time and depends on how the binary was built:
- `docker build .` takes it from the `VERSION` build argument when one is given,
otherwise from `git describe --tags --always` on the `.git` in the build
context. The build fails if `.git` is there and the version still comes out
empty, `dev` or `unknown`. With neither `.git` nor `VERSION`, the binary
reports `dev`.
- `script/docker`, `script/cibuild` and `make docker` pass the host's
`git describe --tags --always --dirty` as `VERSION`, so on a modified tree the
version ends in `-dirty`. When that prints nothing, they pass `unknown`.
- `make` stamps the host's `git describe --tags --always`, without `-dirty`, or
`dev` when that prints nothing.
