version: use OSS repo's version when building.

When building with redo, also include the git commit hash
from the proprietary repo, so that we have a precise commit
that identifies all build info (including Go toolchain version).

Add a top-level build script demonstrating to downstream distros
how to burn the right information into builds.

Adjust `tailscale version` to print commit hashes when available.

Fixes #841.
