Add DOS_ParseVersion function
New parsing code accepts dot-separated version, as more user-friendly way to use the command. For example, the command VER SET 7.1 sets the emulated DOS version as 7.1 (7.10), whereas VER SET 7 1 sets the emulated DOS version as 7.01 (as done in upstream DOSBox), because most users apparently expect VER SET 7.1 to set the emulated DOS version as 7.1 instead of 7.01. Share implementation between VER command and newly added dos.ver config option.
