// Package version provides build metadata and version information management.
//
// This package manages application version information including semantic version,
// Git revision, build time, and provides integration with CLI frameworks (Cobra, Kong)
// and Prometheus metrics for operational visibility.
//
// Version information can be injected at build time using ldflags:
//
// go build -ldflags "-X go.ntppool.org/common/version.VERSION=v1.0.0 \
// -X go.ntppool.org/common/version.buildTime=2023-01-01T00:00:00Z \
// -X go.ntppool.org/common/version.gitVersion=abc123"
//
// The package also automatically extracts build information from Go's debug.BuildInfo
// when available, providing fallback values for VCS time and revision.
