greasemonkey/greasemonkey — Issue #1452: Expose (version) information to user scripts

There should be a way for existing "userland" update scripts to know that they're running in a version of Greasemonkey that does updates itself, and skip running. In order for this to be useful, they should also know whether updates are running.

The branch already merged from #1053 did something like this, but I didn't keep it in the merge because I wasn't totally comfortable with exactly the way it was implemented. I always meant to revisit. This issue is to track that this happens.
