Closes OpenAssetIO#123. The CMake script has the ability to simulate a Python package installation, such that a `dist-info` metadata directory is installed alongside the package, effectively preventing accidental overwrite by other package managers (e.g. pip) when the project is installed via CMake - see OpenAssetIO#58. However, the `Version` field in the `METADATA` file that forms part of the Python package `dist-info` was not being properly filled in. This was not caught by CI because the test for it is only enabled if generation of Python traits via CMake is enabled (i.e. `OPENASSETIO_MEDIACREATION_GENERATE_PYTHON`), which was not the case for the "test" CMake preset used by the "Test Cpp" CI job. There was another problem with running the test, in that the PYTHONPATH was not properly set in the CMake test target, and so the test would not necessarily be able to locate the `openassetio-mediacreation` package installed by CMake.

Closes #123.
