[patch, clang-format] Change the output of --version

Hi,

`clang-format --version` currently uses llvm's default version formatter
which looks like this:

  $ clang-format  --version
  LLVM (http://llvm.org/):
    LLVM version 3.5svn
    Optimized build with assertions.
    Built Jan  3 2014 (14:28:46).
    Default target: x86_64-apple-darwin13.0.0
    Host CPU: core-avx-i

This includes all kinds of stuff that's not interesting for a code
formatter, and it lacks the revision clang-format was built at. In
comparison, `clang --version` prints

  $ bin/clang --version
  clang version 3.5 (198452)
  Target: x86_64-apple-darwin13.0.0
  Thread model: posix

which I think is much better (but Target: and arguably Thread model: aren't
interesting for a formatter either).

The attached patch changes the output of `clang-format --version` to be just

  $ bin/clang-format --version
  clang-format version 3.5 (198452)

The part I care about most is including the revision number.

Ok?

Nico
