Bug Description

Currently on a Ubuntu 18.04 (alpha/beta) installation,

  pkg-config --modversion libargon2

reports

  0~20161029

instead of the expected

  20161029

output.

This however conflicts with the upstream pkg-config template,

  https://github.com/P-H-C/phc-winner-argon2/blob/master/libargon2.pc

which advises the version 20161029 w/o a prefixed `0~` to be advertised.

This breaks scripting which either parses the version reported by
pkg-config (e.g. `cabal`) or also scripting like

  pkg-config --atleast-version=20161029 libargon2

which then fails to report the correct status.
