Originally created by @lemzwerg on GitHub (Sep 5, 2019).

At least two reasons.

decode.h and encode.h both refer to BROTLI_VERSION.
CMake support would be improved; a file FindBrotli.cmake could easily return a version number in environments where pkg-config is not available.

Version is intentionally "runtime only" to avoid compile-time dependency, that would be a perfect way to shoot one's foot.
If absolutely necessary, there is an easy way to get the version with CMake - try_run a tiny program that just dumps version to stdout.
