[nos-bbs] JNOS version numbers

[Chris]

Generally

2.0.x where the x increments for bug fixes 2.0.1 2.0.2 etc

2.x where you add new features 2.1 2.2 etc

x where you do a 'full release' whatever that means, maybe a rewrite or overhaul

3.0

Or the bit more convoluted

2.0.1-x  for bug fixes 2.0.1-1  2.0.1-2 etc

Those are fairly mainstream.

Some sort of indicator is handy for those who leave the build trees
lying around.
