Didn't there use to be a commint instead of 0 or after 0?

Reproducible on #guix by foreign distroers, but not by Guix Systemers.

I've hunted this down using 'guix time-machine' and it looks like the
first commit where the version string returns 0 is
076e825dc5d585943ce820a279fffe4af09757fb. On that
commit 'guix time-machine --commit=076e... -- --version' returns 0 and
on the commit before that 5996aab354831d942b10253bc70217a4f2e6a247 we
get the commit as the version string.

Looking at the commits I'm guessing that the 076e825d commit interacts
with the af57d1bf commit 2 before it, and whether the guile is guile-3.0
or guile-final or guile-3.0-latest.

Fun!  Turns out this was caused by cross-module inlining: the initial
config.scm generated in ‘compiled-guix’ does (define %guix-version "0"),
and that got inlined in (guix ui).

Fixed in 54003af85cc5b689bd328b30617c93ed2f5fd647!
