Add builtin constants ‘langVersion’ and ‘nixVersion’

The integer constant ‘langVersion’ denotes the current language
version.  It gets increased every time a language feature is
added/changed/removed.  It's currently 1.

The string constant ‘nixVersion’ contains the current Nix version,
e.g. "1.2pre2980_9de6bc5".
