Expose the native app's version number #10

For some use cases, it's needed to know the exact version number of a particular app if it is installed.

We have the same use-case. Different versions of our app support different features, and knowing in advance whether to redirect or not would be greatly beneficial.

I've started drafting the spec, and made it include the version. I also updated the README/EXPLAINER.

This was also implemented on chromium tracking bug.

Closing the issue, please re-open if you have further concerns
