Create unique version string for AB dev package

haasad commented 8 months ago

Fixes #1193

Instead of using the date for the dev version, we create a version string from the latest tag and the number of commits since the latest tag. Eg. 2.9.4dev2. Like this there should be no more problems with conflicts for multiple dev releases on the same day. Also this versioning conveys more useful information than the date. The release date itself can always be checked on https://anaconda.org/bsteubing/activity-browser-dev/files

Thanks a lot for having a look at this! I've added @mrvisscher as reviewer, prehaps you had already seen his tag in some places, he's our new developer :)
