This changes the logic of parsing the `version.go` file from a certain branch to instead make use of the GitHub latest release redirect or API[1] endpoints for checking if `sops` is on the latest version. Detaching any future release of SOPS from specific file structures and/or branches, and (theoretically) freeing it from the requirement of having to bump the version in-code during release (as this is also done using `-ldflags` during build). Were it not for the fact that we have to maintain it for backwards compatibility.
