This allows for further (out of tree) customisation of the boot
banner version string when devices boot.

Generalize the VERSION and version.h generation so that the same
infrastructure can be reused for generating other version related
header files, such as an application version header.

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.

- Add examples for the latter.
- Point at each other and highlight how independent they are from each
other.
- State their inputs and outputs in plain English.
- Fix "git describe" error message giving the wrong impression that
everyone cares about BUILD_VERSION. Only the boot banner cares now.

Introducing CMake is an important step in a larger effort to make
Zephyr easy to use for application developers working on different
platforms with different development environment needs.
Simplified, this change retains Kconfig as-is, and replaces all
Makefiles with CMakeLists.txt. The DSL-like Make language that KBuild
offers is replaced by a set of CMake extentions. These extentions have
either provided simple one-to-one translations of KBuild features or
introduced new concepts that replace KBuild concepts.
This is a breaking change for existing test infrastructure and build
scripts that are maintained out-of-tree. But for FW itself, no porting
should be necessary.
For users that just want to continue their work with minimal
disruption the following should suffice:
Install CMake 3.8.2+
Port any out-of-tree Makefiles to CMake.
Learn the absolute minimum about the new command line interface:
$ cd samples/hello_world
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DBOARD=nrf52_pca10040 ..
$ cd build
$ make
