qmake: use a dedicated build script to generate ssrf-version.h

- added ./scripts/write-version
- subsurface-gen-version.pri is much simpler now
- .git/HEAD is no longer used explicitly in .pro/.pri files
- the version_h rule is called on each 'make' invocation
but recompilation will occur only if ssrf-version.h
is updated by ./scripts/write-version
- qmake now depends on the existence of ssrf-version.h
so it creates an empty one on Makefile generation so
that a warning is not shown
