    terminal.c: put source commit id in 'line==NULL' dialog.
    
    People sometimes send in cut-and-pastes of that dialog box from very
    old versions of PuTTY. This can usually be detected because the
    'lineno' field in the error message refers to a line number in
    terminal.c which doesn't have a call to lineptr() or scrlineptr() on
    it _now_ but used to a long time ago). But that's a pretty roundabout
    way to detect anything, so let's put some more reliable version
    information in the error message.
    
    (This might also provide a way to test the hypothesis that whatever
    bug used to cause this dialog box to appear is now fixed, and that
    _all_ remaining reports of this error message are from outdated
    builds.)
