diff setup.py @ 7632:9626819b2e3d

refactor version code

- simplify version detection code
- move detection code into setup.py
- move version reading function into util.py
- drop version.py code

This makes hg more closely follow its own recommendation of how to deal with
versioning your builds: use hg id in your build script.
