Description

Curious case of version.h

hbase-native-client relies on this include file to compile. However that is not generated by the HBase repo. I see no trace of it in the git log, wonder how it even worked until now.

I think it will be useful to generate it during compilation and package it with the release tar ball. This helps phrocker in HBASE-24400.
