Emil Velikov 488b3ed6f4 build: unify mesa version by using a VERSION file
Rather than having to keep track of all the build systems and their respecitve
definition of the mesa version, use a single top file VERSION. Every build
system is responsible for reading/parsing the file and using it

v2:
* remove useless bulletpoint from the documentation, suggested by Matt
* "Androing is Linux. Use '/' in stead of '\'", spotted by Chad V
* use cleaner code to get the version in scons, suggested by Chad V

v3:
* ensure leading and trailing whitespace characters are stripped while parsing
* android: handle GNU shell commands approapriately

Kenneth Graunke 7d24d1b873 docs: Remove <em> obfuscation on public mailing list addresses.
Wrapping every character of an email address in <em> looks bizarre, and
makes it impossible to read the text.  Apparently Brian did this in 2003
to try and obfuscate email addresses and avoid spam.

Of course, mesa-*@lists.freedesktop.org are public mailing lists and
trivial to find on the internet.  So obfuscation buys us nothing
(assuming the <em> technique even works at all, which I doubt).

    glut: Remove GLUT source.

    Most distros ship freeglut, and most people don't care one vs the other,
    and it hasn't been really maintained.

    So it is better to have Mesa GLUT be revisioned and built separately
    from Mesa.
