Introduce KALEIDOSCOPE_API_VERSION

As we guarantee backwards compatibility throughout a major version, it helps if
we have that version available, so plugins / sketches can check if they are
compatible, and issue a helpful error if they are not. As further convenience,
defining `KALEIDOSCOPE_REQUIRED_API_VERSION` before including `Kaleidoscope.h`
will result in a check being done by Kaleidoscope, and an error printed if it
does not match the API shipped.

/** Kaleidoscope API (major) version.
*
* The API is guaranteed to be backwards compatible for the entire duration of a
* major version. However, breaking changes may come, and result in a major
* version bump. To help migration, the `KALEIDOSCOPE_API_VERSION` macro can be
* used to check the major version provided by the Kaleidoscope we are compiling
* against. This can be used to error out with a helpful message, or change how
* the API is used - it is entirely up to the plugin or sketch author. The point
* of this macro is to let them easily check the version.

*
* Done so that a new API version would result in a helpful error message,
* instead of cryptic compile errors.
