distribute.sh: Show correct version when building without VisiCutBuilder

Before, when building with distribute.sh without VisiCutBuilder, the window title showed a fixed fallback string for the version, and the splash screen always showed "1.7".

Now, when building without VisiCutBuilder, the right version (determined from $VERSION or from git) is shown in the splash screen, and the window title simply doesn't show the version.

Nothing has changed when building *with* VisiCutBuilder, which writes the version into VisicutApp.properties.
