Move away from semantic versioning, and simplify release process.
The rationale is that we get very little benefit by using SemVer, because backwards compatibility isn't really applicable to us: there is no state, and users just want to be on the latest. It could be argued we don't need versions, and could just use a commit hash instead. I think versions help by making it clear how far behind one is to latest.
