add a version method #177

Closed plicease closed 7 years ago

plicease commented 7 years ago

If I had a nickle for every time that I tried to call $alien->version then I would be able to afford to go to the movies in a theatre with nice large reserved seats. This is my proposal to add a version method to get at the configuration data that is determined at install time. It has the nice bonus that it shaves off the new line that may be there, because for system installs it just puts the output from pkg-config --version unless you have overridden the system detection logic.
