commit a04bb6f22eec2673f61fc98c03c224a5f5985b13

    Add dirty flag to git describe
    
    git describe knows --dirty, which adds -dirty to the verion number
    if the tree contains uncommited changes. We should add this flag
    to make it obvious that the COREBOOT_VERSION might be misleading.
    This is especially important as this version number is now used
    in the SMBIOS data structures.
