Added version sub-command and fixed line number flags.

Miscellaneous other fixes include: * Update version to 0.7.0 * Workaround for an issue loading the atomvm_packbeam application in a release, which prevents us from getting the proper version * Added UPDATING.md to describe the "breaking" change in 0.7.0 (see UPDATING below) * Fix to Makefile to build the release target properly * Removed use of deprecated packbeam_api create call UPDATING: The default behavior of not generating line number information in BEAM files has changed. By default, line number information will be generated in BEAM files. You can remove line number information using from BEAM files by using the `-r` (or `--remove_lines`) flags to the `create` subcommand. Note that in versions 0.6 of this tool, the `--include_lines` flag was ignored due to a bug in the code. Signed-off-by: Fred Dushin <fred@dushin.net>

+- Added `version` sub-command to print version to the console
+- Added `-r`, `--remove` option and removed the `-i`, `--include` option, which was ineffective due to a bug.  See the [Updating](UPDATING.md) notes on the impact of these changes.

 If there is no beam file with a `start/0` entry-point defined in the list of input modules and the `--prune` flag is used, the command will fail.  You should _not_ use the `--prune` flag if you are trying to build libraries suitable for inclusion on other AtomVM applications.
 
+### Line number information
+
+By default, the `packbeam` tool will generate line number information for embedded BEAM files.  Line number information is included in Erlang stacktraces, giving developers more clues into bugs in their programs.  However, line number information does increase the size of AVM files, and in some cases can have an impact on memory in running applications.
+
+For production applications that have no need for line number information, we recommend using the `-r` (or `--remove_lines`) flags, which will strip line number information from embedded BEAM files.

 ## `list` sub-command
 
 The `list` sub-command will print the contents of an AVM file to the standard output stream.
