.git_commit_info is installed into system paths by setup.py
some security audit tools do not like this.

I see no reason why this file should be hidden, can the dot be removed?

see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=663256

store git commit hash in utils._sysinfo instead of hidden data file

Behavior is essentially unchanged, but the hash is stored in a generated Python file instead of hidden data file.

Closes ipython#1484.
