Adjust the "default" version string. #118

I tested by building Sonata with this change using the Guix package management system, and then checking for the correct version string in the "About Sonata" dialog.

It's possible that this issue of "1.7b1" being displayed only manifests when building without the .git directory in the source code. Guix deletes the .git directory so that we can refer to the source code in a content-addressed way.

Good catch, thanks!

It also shows up on Debian actually. Sonata ought to have something simpler to find the version...
