This PR replaces the buggy git describe command, which doesn't register the updated version when doing a release, with the version in VERSION.txt. We should test that this works by re-running the stable docs deploy on main afterwards. Edit: maybe not since this would build to stable/0.8 right now after the version bump.
This is an automatic backport of pull request #1462 done by Mergify.
