Rename release file to include version number #278

Hello! I am the package maintainer for netdata in MacPorts. I noticed that the release tarball for the dashboard is named simply dashboard.tar.gz, without any version information in the file name.

Unfortunately, this causes a few complications for us (and likely for other package management software): MacPorts caches source tarballs and uses the version information to both 1) be able to store multiple versions in our cache and 2) detect when a new version is released. When a source tarball does not contain version information, we lose the ability to do both of these things.

Would you consider renaming the release tarballs to dashboard-${version}.tar.gz?

Thanks!

A bit off topic perhaps but what's the reasoning behind not using the bundled version that comes with netdata releases?
