"--version" option does not produce output matching an existing git tag #544

$ actionlint --version
1.7.7

This version output does not match an existing tag in git.

I would expect either the --version option to return the version number with a "v" prefix or the git tags to omit the "v" prefix to match the version output.

The existing behavior causes issues where other tools or users are using the --version output to point to a git tag (e.g., when defining a pre-commit hook, or e.g., when aggregating versions of many linters and formatters like in super-linter).
