[Bug 406555] [NEW] there is no way to have smart options that figure the value via a save "provider'

[ronny]

Public bug reported:

this would help with:

get versions via vcs tags
nightly builds

whatever, i'm not yet creative

something like

options(
setup(
version provided by "vellum.ext.vcs.version_by_tag"
)
)

might be nice
