libchewing maintains ABI compatibility between versions. We need this new API so that
wrappers can query the latest linked version (vs. compiled with version).
Describe the solution you'd like
A new API char* chewing_version() that returns string encoded version string.
Optionally
int chewing_version_major()
int chewing_version_minor()
int chewing_version_patch()
char* chewing_version_extra()
Additional context
It's nice to have to be able to show runtime version information in ibus-chewing's about
page.
