… in the gimp-release file.
This will be useful to disable the update check for the Windows Store
even though we use the same build as the installer. All it will take
will be to append the line `check-update=false` to the file
`share/gimp/2.10/gimp-release` and it will behave as though the update
check is disabled (even though it is actually built-in).
I realized having the revision as a build number is the wrong idea as it
implies packagers will have to rebuild GIMP for just a revision. Yet
very often revision may just be data change or dependency fix/update
without rebuild needed (i.e. no ABI change).
Instead let's keep this package information as a file 'gimp-release'
(inspired by /etc/os-release and other /etc/*-release files of
distributions).
Since commit 9fdf35550b, I removed the GIMP_APP_GLUE_COMPILATION check
because we need to have the whole versioning info from the new debug
widget. It just makes sense to go further and just make this a proper
internal API to get version information.
