Subject: Keep the version numbers off the pages

The generator meta, the footer and the patch signature named the exact
cgit and git versions on every response, which only helps someone
matching a site against an advisory. The shipped server configs already
hide the server's own version for the same reason, and cgit --version
still answers on the host.
