pretty: add %(describe)
Add a format placeholder for describe output. Implement it by actually calling git describe, which is simple and guarantees correctness. It's intended to be used with $Format:...$ in files with the attribute export-subst and git archive. It can also be used with git log etc., even though that's going to be slow due to the fork for each commit.
