Missing `version` attribute

See original GitHub issue

Which version of the SDK was used? Please provide the output of `pip freeze`.

...
azure-common==1.1.16
azure-storage-blob==1.4.0
azure-storage-common==1.4.0
azure-storage-file==1.4.0
azure-storage-queue==1.4.0
...

What problem was encountered?

I cannot retrieve the module version because version is missing in both azure and azure.storage.blob (see below). I thought that was a pretty standard way to do it see PEP 396 and this issue

>>> import azure
>>> azure.__version__
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: module 'azure' has no attribute '__version__'

We do not have plan to add version for the azure package. That’s a meta-package used to install more libraries. Also, on Python 3 the file azure/__init__.py doesn’t even exist, I have no opportunity to add this information. The future of the azure package is in discussion, right now the recommendation is to depend on the set of services you need and not azure

I understand azure is not a real package but since I can pip install azure==4.0.0 and pip freeze | grep azure —> azure==4.0.0, I’d expect it to have a __version__ attribute.
