feat: implement end-to-end project release version tracking

[plexoos]

• bump the project version to 0.3.0 in CMake and Python metadata
• add git-aware version resolution in CMake with support for CI/Docker overrides
• propagate the release tag into Docker builds from the release workflow
• generate version metadata macros in the configured header
• expose project version, git version, and git revision through the Config API

Pull request overview

Implements end-to-end build/release version tracking by deriving a git-based version during CMake configure, embedding version metadata into generated headers, and wiring CI/Docker to provide a version when .git is unavailable.

Changes:

• Add CMake git version detection (git describe / rev-parse) with fallback to PROJECT_VERSION, plus optional CI/Docker override.
• Expose version metadata in generated config header and via new gphox::Config accessors.
• Bump project/package version to 0.3.0 and pass release tag into Docker builds from GitHub Actions.
