What

Per #1708, I added global (magic?) variables for major, minor, and patch semantic versions. The version is coming from the the root package.json (either in the webpack step or in runtime).

ASC_VERSION_MAJOR;
ASC_VERSION_MINOR;
ASC_VERSION_PATCH;

Note

I usually use the npm package semver to parse semantic versioning. In this use case, I feel that this is simple enough that we should not add a dependency on semver. If we ever release beta/alpha/build number, then we should utilize semver.
