Bump version to 2.8 (#6)

Version 2.8 was selected to avoid collision with the 2.7 version of
the ipodloader2 binary that is floating around the internet.

Truncate loader name to just "iPL VERSION" to make room for the git
short hash included in VERSION. Move version number completely into the
Makefile.
