cmake: version.h generation performed at build time
Fixes: #39503
Fixes: #40167
This commit moves `BUILD_VERSION` CMake variable from a compile
definition to be a define inside version.h.
Besides the benefit of having related settings grouped in a common
header, it also means that an updated `BUILD_VERSION` value does not
need to trigger re-compilation of all source files.
When using compile definitions, CMake cannot tell whether a given source
files uses the definition or not, and hence all sources must be
recompiled to be sure they are up-to-date.
Placing `BUILD_VERSION` in version.h, the source dependencies ensures
that only source files including `version.h` gets recompiled.
As part of this, version.h generation is moved so that it is now done
at build time.
This means that re-generation of version.h is no longer depending on a
CMake re-run but can have it's own dependency in `.git/index` when git
described is used to obtain `BUILD_VERSION` information.
Generation of logging dictionary database has been updated to support
BUILD_VERSION from header file instead of CMake configure time variable.
