Title: Automatically read version and release number (see #9520)

@melissalinkert, @joshmoore,
this PR should prevent us from hard-coding the version and release number in the sphinx configuration file.
Currently, release number includes alpha or rc tags, e.g. 4.4.1-RC2.

Once this PR gets merged, we can think of ways to transpose this to ome-docs.
