This is something identified as part of #569.

This fixes our release automation (since we had introduced multiple sources of truth for version metadata in #546), fixes our test suite execution (ensuring we test the installed copy) and makes the layout more consistent with other PyPA projects (like pip, installer, etc).

This makes it possible for flit to auto-discover the version from this
file.
This ensures that tests are executed against the installed copy, rather
than the in-tree copy.
This makes it possible to single-source the package version.
