Description
Version info is defined at several different locations and suffixes are not consistent.
For example, from version, we should be able to tell developing version vs released version.
Ideally, version is defined at a single location, and can be read from gradle and Py, Go, Java.
Imported from Jira [BEAM-8192](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-8192). Original Jira may contain additional context.
