scons: Compatibility with Scons development version string

This ensures Mesa3D build doesn't fail in this case as encountered when
bisecting Scons source code while regression testing
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109443
and when testing 3.0.5.a.2

Technical details:
Scons version string has consistently been in this format:
MajorVersion.MinorVersion.Patch[.alpha/beta.yyyymmdd]
so these formulas should strip alpha/beta flags and return Scons version:

- as string - `'.'.join(SCons.__version__.split('.')[:3])`
- as tuple of integers - `tuple(map(int, SCons.__version__.split('.')[:3]))`

- v2: Fixed Scons version retrieval formulas as string and tuple of integers.
- v3: Fixed Scons version string format description.
