Guy Harris c46329c27b Add a routine to return a version string including VCS information.
Add a routine get_ws_vcs_version_info() that, for builds from a tree
checked out from Wireshark's version control system, returns a string
that includes both the Wireshark version number and an indication of
what particular VCS version was checked out, and just returns
Wireshark's version number for other builds.

Use that routine rather than manually gluing VERSION and the Git version
number together.

("vcs", not "git", just in case we do something bizarre or mercurial
some day. :-))
