Please do not re-introduce hard-coded version branding into various files.

All version info was centralised to include/version.mk by this commit:

https://github.com/lede-project/source/commit/3193053df7d27bde82fbcc310e4404cc43f39313#diff-d08225593c57fc07ce549597f7fd4c68

and further refined with

https://github.com/lede-project/source/commit/5f3c96c28503b8a0aad1514ef144b15e670d338b#diff-d08225593c57fc07ce549597f7fd4c68

Having hard-coded versions scattered around in various files proved to be 
cumbersome at several Openwrt releases, as some of the hard-coded names were 
forgotten to be changed in connection to several releases.

In LEDE sources the variables like "%N (%V, %C)" take nicely care of the 
version branding also in /etc/banner, also including the version name.

Using hard-coded name like "DESIGNATED DRIVER (%C, %R)" would be a clear step 
backwards.



Ps.

And are the drinks really back on the menu?
