Revert of Reland Auto-generate v8 version based on tags. (patchset #1 id:1 of https://codereview.chromium.org/
843913009/)
Reason for revert:
The gclient hook of v8 is not executed on this builder:
http://build.chromium.org/p/tryserver.chromium.linux/builders/android_aosp/builds/49765
Original issue's description:
> Reland Auto-generate v8 version based on tags.
>
> This relands the CL
> https://codereview.chromium.org/
797503007/.
>
> It runs the version generation two times. First during
> runhooks as a fallback for recipes that loose git context
> (e.g. android_aosp). Second during compilation like in the
> original CL. In case of failures, the result from the
> runhooks call will be reused.
