Instead of using a URL and git sha1, this uses `git describe` to
describe the version relative to the nearest previous git tag, which
gives a better indication of whether this is a release, a prerelease,
a slightly patched prerelease, or a long way after the last release
during active development.
This serves two purposes: it makes those APIs more informative, and it
also puts this information into the binary in a form that is easy to
screen-scrape using strings(1). For instance, if the bundled version of
SDL in a game has this, we can see at a glance what version it is.
It's also shorter than using the web address of the origin git
repository and the full git commit sha1.
Also write the computed version into a file ./VERSION in `make dist`
tarballs, so that when we build from a tarball on a system that doesn't
have git available, we still get the version details.
For the Perforce code path in showrev.sh, output the version number
followed by the Perforce revision, in a format reminiscent of
`git describe` (with p instead of g to indicate Perforce).
For the code path with no VCS available at all, put a suffix on the
version number to indicate that this is just a guess (we can't know
whether this SDL version is actually a git snapshot or has been
patched locally or similar).

If this assertion fails on some platform (unlikely), we will need a
third implementation for SwapLongLE().

The check for whether to use a 32- or 64-bit swap for an array of long
values always took the 64-bit path, because <limits.h> wasn't included
and therefore ULONG_MAX wasn't defined. Turn this into a runtime check,
which a reasonable compiler will optimize into a constant.
This fixes testevdev failures on 32-bit big-endian platforms such as hppa
and older powerpc. Little-endian and/or 64-bit platforms are unaffected.
