Add --version flag to archiver, compactor, and partitioner #76

Description

@imtiazqa

None of the three ColdFront binaries respond to --version. Passing the flag causes them to exit with an error instead of printing version information. This is unexpected behavior for a CLI tool and makes it harder to confirm which version is running — especially in production environments or when troubleshooting issues remotely.

Without --version, the only way to check the installed version is through RPM metadata (rpm -q), which is indirect and not always available or reliable.

Expected behavior:

$ archiver --version
archiver 1.0.0
Same for compactor and partitioner.
