Like core-Git we now track the values that we embed into our shell
script wrapper, and we "recompile" that wrapper if they are changed.
This concept was lifted from git.git's Makefile, where a similar
thing was done by Eygene Ryabinkin. Too bad it wasn't just done
here in git-gui from the beginning, as the git.git Makefile support
for GIT-GUI-VARS was really just because git-gui doesn't do it on
its own.

This reverts commit 871f4c97ad.
Too many users have complained about the credits generator in
git-gui, so I'm backing the entire thing out. This revert will
finish that series.

Now that git-gui has been released to the public as part of Git 1.5.0
I am starting to see some work from other people beyond myself and
Paul. Consequently the copyright for git-gui is not strictly the
two of us anymore, and these others deserve to have some credit
given to them.

I'm stealing the exact logic used by core Git within its own Makefile to
setup the version number within scripts and executables. This way we
can be sure that the version number is always updated after a commit,
and that the version number also reflects when it is coming from a dirty
working directory (and is thus pretty worthless).
I've cleaned up some of the version display code in the about dialog too.
There were simply too many blank lines in the bottom section where we
showed the version data.

We want to embed the version of git-gui directly into the script file,
so that we can display it properly in the about dialog. Consequently
I've refactored the Makefile process to act like the one in core git.git
with regards to shell scripts, allowing git-gui to be constructed by a
sed replacement performed on git-gui.sh.
