Summary:
We continually rebuilt build_version.c because we put the
current date into it, but that's what __DATE__ already is. This makes
builds faster.
This also fixes an issue with 'make clean FOO' not working properly.
Also tweak the build rules to be more consistent, always have warnings,
and add a 'make release' rule to handle flags for release builds.
Test Plan: make, make clean

Summary: Record the version of the source that we are compiling. We keep a record of the git revision in util/version.cc. This source file is then built as a regular source file as part of the compilation process. One can run "strings executable_filename | grep _build_" to find the version of the source that we used to build the executable file.
Test Plan: none
