Merge ~mpontillo/maas:rack-version-utils into maas:master

[Mike Pontillo]

Make version check utilities work for the rack.

This allows rack-only installations to determine their version.

Also moves code to determine MAAS version to the src/provisioningserver.

[Newell Jensen (newell-jensen)]

Looks good. Just one small suggestion.

review: Approve

[Mike Pontillo (mpontillo)]

Self-approving previously approved branch. (I resubmitted to land two related branches together.)

review: Approve
