850285 - generate_diff.py should have an --info flag to print package versions

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Testing :: Mozbase, defect)

Description

[Jeff Hammel]

From https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=838374#c12:

> We need better functions where appropriate to introspect this sort
  of thing.  Yes, you can manually look at the setup.pys, but you can
  also manually use an abacus to do arithmetic.

generate_diff.py should have an --info flag that will print the
versions in-tree.

A better way of doing this would be to have a generic utility to
introspect versions.

generate_diff.py no longer exists after bug 949600.
