Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#23198: build: Parse version information in msvc-autogen.py

410f99faed47e27fca77531a864383b6119e7b0b build_msvc/bitcoin_config.h is generated using build_msvc/msvc-autogen.py (CallMeMisterOwl)

Pull request description:

  Added a function that parses version information from `configure.ac` into `build_msvc/bitcoin_config.h`. This is done by default in `msvc-autogen.py`, so manual changing of `build_msvc/bitcoin_config.h` is no longer required.
  In addition to that I updated the Release Process doc.

  Following values are updated:

     -**CLIENT_VERSION_BUILD**
     -**CLIENT_VERSION_IS_RELEASE**
     -**CLIENT_VERSION_MAJOR**
     -**CLIENT_VERSION_MINOR**
     -**COPYRIGHT_YEAR**
     -**PACKAGE_STRING**
     -**PACKAGE_VERSION**

  fixes #23073
