Add option to require a specific version to be running (#2300)

Closes #1246: This PR adds a new option (and automatically a toml entry, hooray for existing configuration management 🎉) to require a specific version of Black to be running.

For example: `black --required-version 20.8b -c "format = 'this'"`

Execution fails straight away if it doesn't match `__version__`.

 ## Configuration via a file
 
 _Black_ is able to read project-specific default values for its command line options
