Jef Driesen 19dd25c71c Get the SHA1 when no tag is present
The 'git describe' command finds the most recent tag instead of the
SHA1. When trying to build from a repository without any tags, for
example in a fork, this causes the build to fail.

Use the '--always' option to fallback to the SHA1 in case no tag is
present.

Creating a Windows installer

The scripts here help with cross building Subsurface and smtk2ssrf for Windows.

The preferred method to create a Windows installer is to use our own docker image that has all the build components pre-assembled. All it takes is this:

cd /some/path/windows
git clone https://github.com/subsurface/subsurface
cd subsurface
git submodule init
git submodule update
docker run -v /some/path/windows:/__w subsurface/mxe-build-container:2.2 /bin/bash /__w/subsurface/packaging/windows/create-win-installer.sh

This will result in subsurface-VERSION.exe and smtk2ssrf-VERSION.exe to be created.
