Git releases

Hi. It'd be nice to have specific git commits actually bear release tags. This would make it easier for distro maintainers to package the engine.

There has never been a release 🥲

I know. It always was latest-alpha-from-svn-on-fire. I'm not touching upon this issue for no reason - I'd like to maintain OpenJK for Gentoo in src_prepare-overlay. Since the gamedata can be purchased from GOG, we're more than able to provide not just the ebuild for this engine, but also the gamedata.

We now technically have releases since #1128 if that helps? 😁

Thank you @Razish! I'll have to wait for you all to get a little more creative with the naming scheme first though. I don't think emerge, apt, or yum would understand the concept of "latest" ;)

[Razish]

Haha, completely fair. Looks like we'll be able to move forward with our current GH actions.
I've started by creating a pre-release v0.0.0 for a clean starting point, and will follow semver for future releases.
Hope that works for everyone?

Update: we are waiting for a few more key PRs to be merged before considering this complete.

• [MP] reconcile game module changes with the original source releases by diffing codemp/game #1178
• [Meta] Update readme #1171
• [Shared] Add git tag to version string #1176

Hopefully we can also include:

• Rend2 SP #1179
