CI: Build `git describe` versioned snapshot tarballs

This:
 - modifies `configure.ac` to get a version number courtesy of `git`
   when `autoconf` is run
 - runs a `make dist` when all compilation targets succeed
 - makes the resulting tarball available as a build artifact
 - renames the various pipeline stages
