Report version in registry binary

We've added support to the registry command to report the current version of
the distribution package. The version package is generated with a shell script
that gets the latest tag and add "+unknown". This allows builds from "go get"
and "go install" to have a rough version number. Generated periodically, it
will provide a decent indication of what code built the binary. For more
accurate versioning, one can build with the "binaries" make target. Linker
flags are used to replace the version string with the actual current tag at
build time.

package version
// Package is the overall, canonical project import path under which the
// package was built.
var Package = "github.com/docker/distribution"
// Version indicates which version of the binary is running. This is set to
// the latest release tag by hand, always suffixed by "+unknown". During
// build, it will be replaced by the actual version. The value here will be
// used if the registry is run after a go get based install.
var Version = "v2.0.0-alpha.1+unknown"
