Bumps the in-tree version default in cmd/root.go from the stale v0.4.0-dev
to v0.8.0-dev — the line now in progress (v0.7.3 has shipped).

This var is only the fallback for untagged local builds; releases inject the
tag via -ldflags, and the -dev suffix marks a build as not a tagged release.
It had drifted far behind the actual release line. Also updates the matching
example in docs/how-to/cutting-a-release.md.

Verified: make build, gofmt -l ., go vet ./..., and go test ./cmd/ clean;
the built binary reports ferry v0.8.0-dev.

has shipped, so the line in progress is v0.8.0 — report v0.8.0-dev, and update
the release how-to's example to match.
