Ensure `git describe` only matches version tags 

`git describe` will match the latest tags, regardless of what it looks
like. We can make this a little safer by adding a `--match` flag to
match tags that look like version tags. This allows the maintainers of
this repo to more safely add other types of tags if they so wish,
without causing people to install or upgrade to those versions.
