chirp --version— report chirp and key dependency versions.
A stale install is invisible until it errors at runtime (e.g. a missing
url_for template global from a chirp predating that feature). chirp --versionsurfaces the installed chirp version alongside its tightly coupled
runtime dependencies — kida and pounce — plus the Python build, so a mismatched
environment is obvious before it bites.
The version string mirrors the Environment panel on the debug error page
(chirp.server.debug.renderers).

Resolve an installed distribution version, falling back to__version__.
Prefer package metadata (authoritative, no import side effects). If the distribution is not installed…
Build the one-linechirp --versionreport.

def _dist_version(dist_name: str, module_name: str | None = None) -> strResolve an installed distribution version, falling back to__version__.
Prefer package metadata (authoritative, no import side effects). If the
distribution is not installed under that name — e.g. an editable checkout on
PYTHONPATHwith no metadata — fall back to importing the module and
reading__version__.
