run git describe in Makefile

make is always run from the src-dir, so capture git desc output there, then it might be usable in the install target. ATM this just echos GIT_VERSION, but it could be passed as an ENVAR= into pip install via INSTALL_ARGS. Maybe pip install can add this into the package info ?
