Generate git version and include that in source output #46

The current GIT_VERSION value only works if you build from a git repo. Once we release on github, the tarballs that one can download are not git repos and the git command to describe the version fail.

Generate the git version value and write to a file. In source tarball builds, the value will come from the file rather than git.

Add 'show-version' as makefile target
Add 'show-version' to github workflow
Adjust make-tarball tool to insert the git-version file

Fixes: #45

Hrm, this focal environment is getting a security violation with its efi shell:

BdsDxe: failed to start Boot0002 "EFI Internal Shell" from Fv(7CB8BDC9-F8EB-4F34-AAEA-3EE4AF6516A1)/FvFile(7C04A583-9E3E-4F1C-AD65-E05268D0B4D1): Security Violation

I don't get that on a local focal system.
