Make version name and version code available from BuildConfig

[matteblair]

The Gradle plugin generates a class called BuildConfig at compile time, we can use it to access values determined at build time like the version name and version code:

// Print the version of tangram in use.
Log.d(com.mapzen.tangram.BuildConfig.VERSION_NAME);

The version name is probably more useful than the version code, but version code seems to be used sometimes as well, so I stole the script used in Eraser Map to generate version codes automatically :)

Closes #795

Is there a JS equivalent for this already?
