Owner

Add a workspace crate meshcentral-build-info with a build script that emits compile-time constants for the application version, git commit, and UTC build timestamp. Each value can be overridden by VERVAIN_BUILD_VERSION, VERVAIN_BUILD_GIT_HASH, or VERVAIN_BUILD_DATE; otherwise the build script falls back to git describe --tags --always --dirty, git rev-parse HEAD, and the current UTC time.

Wire the constants into the meshcentral and meshctrl clap definitions so --version prints a multi-line banner with all three fields, into the meshcentral version subcommand, and into the server startup log line.

Plumb the three env vars into oci-build/Dockerfile as build args, since the production image build context does not include the .git directory and the build script cannot derive the values inside the builder stage on its own.
