Title:
  .disk/mini-info is the same for GA and SRU d-i builds

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in debian-installer source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:

  [Impact]

   * d-i build does not contain a full version number, thus impossible
  to identify which build a mini.ios, pxeboot, netboot builds belong to
  prior or after the install.

   * this makes it impossible to tell apart SRU builds of d-i

   * The fix is to include a full version string, instead of stripped
  one, during build

  [Test Case]

   * Unpack mini-iso, verify that .disk/mini-info has a full version
  string including training .N number.

   * Install system and check that debian-installer package in
  /var/log/installer/status has full version number including training
  .N number

  [Regression Potential]

   * minimal, the version/buildstamp used is an arbitrary string, sans
  trailing .N number.
