Give the version of the ScienceTools in the products #65

ported from STGEN-124

It would be useful to know the version name for each product of the ScienceTools, for example in header of any FITs output file, or as a comment in an ASCII file.

This would help for example to reproduce correctly the data at a given state of the development, for test or to know the impact of the ST version on the data

From Jim's comment:

This seems like a great thing to have st_app::StApp do. The logical place would be in the CREATOR keyword in the Primary HDU, e.g.,

CREATOR = 'gtobssim ScienceTools-09-24-00' / software and version creating file

instead of just

CREATOR = 'gtbin ' / Software and version creating file
