tag demos to a specific release

[anutron]

As new versions of Core and More role out, we need a way to know which demos work with what release. Can we please tag these, or perhaps work on a branch that references, a specific release?

I personally don't think we need to overcomplicate here. They should just work with the latest release. Maybe for 2.0 we'll have some delay to update everything, but we can handle that at that time (by adding a note "These are 1.x demos!!!" or something).

As we add more of these demos they'll have to either a) hold up development
releases while we bring them up to date or b) lag. Part of what's making me
push for this is that I want to convert all the UI tests in More to use this
demo format. Maybe I'm trying to make those things (which are tests) into
something they really aren't (demos). But the thing is that they each are
useful as the other; the UI tests are good demos, and the demos are good UI
tests (though we are trying to move more towards specs for that stuff)...

We could solve this by doing a submodule in the repo for the demos. Then when we tag, the demos are locked for that version.

We would need to update our viewers (website, etc.) so that they use git.
