Instead of checking whether it was set previously, setting it to false,
then setting it back to true if it was true before, just use the
command-line argument in git to override the config for that command.
Using a variable makes it pretty painless to do.
It is often difficult to diagnose new issues server admins get when
upgrading to a new server version because the only information they are
able to tell us regarding the server version they are running is
"latest". This commit attempts to mitigate this by keeping track of the
previous version of Paper they were running, which is then reported by
the `/version` or `/paper version` command. This gives us a better idea
of the commits included in the upgrade, which may help diagnose new
issues easier.
Rather than checking the platform or operating system, simply check if
the command exists. If the check fails, check if the md5 command exists.
If that fails as well, cancel the build script. Otherwise, assign the
alias as before.
