[UTC] Add --version argument

We have a number of pending changes to update_test_checks.py
(and friends) that are essentially blocked on test churn:
If the output of UTC for an existing flag combination changes,
then the next time a test is regenerated, it will contain many
spurious changes. This makes changes to UTC default
behavior essentially impossible.

Examples of such changes are:

* D133943/D142373 want --function-signature to also check the
  return type/attributes.
* D139006/D140212 want to make --function-signature the default
  behavior.
* D142452 wants to add wildcards for block labels.

This patch tries to resolve this issue by adding a --version
argument, which works as follows:

* When regenerating an old test, the default version is 1.
* When generating a new test, the default version is the newest.
 When an explicit version is specified, that of course wins.

This means that any currently existing tests will keep using
--version 1 format, while any new tests will automatically embed
--version N where N is the latest version, and then keep using
that test format from then on.

This patch only implements the --version flag without bumping
the default version, so it does not have any visible behavior
change by itself.
