[PATCH v2 1/4] Config: add info about version in config

[Jiri Prochazka]

The are two types of versions - LNST Major Version and git HEAD commit
hash. LNST Major Version is used when LNST is installed and run from
RPM and git commit hash is used when LNST is run from devel git repo.

LNSTMajorVersion variable in Config.py will have to be manully
incremented each time new release is made.

Used version is stored in Config.version attribute.

Getting git HEAD commit hash is done in following steps:
1) Save cwd
2) Change cwd to directory where Config.py file is located
3) Try running git rev-parse HEAD, which returns commit hash
4) If git command execution was successful, use hash as version
5) Else use value of LNSTMajorVersion as version
6) Return to original working directory

If we didn't change cwd, we would have problems with running LNST installed
from RPM in any git repo folder.
