[RFC,v5,08/19] Makefile: refactor GIT-VERSION-GEN to be reusable

Our "GIT-VERSION-GEN" script always writes the "GIT-VERSION-FILE" into
the current directory, where the expectation is that it should exist in
the source directory. But other build systems that support out-of-tree
builds may not want to do that to keep the source directory pristine,
even though CMake currently doesn't care.

Refactor the script such that it doesn't write output to a file anymore
but so that it instead writes the version to stdout. This makes it
easier to compute the same version as our Makefile would without having
to write the "GIT-VERSION-FILE".
