  Appending it with version number which is compile time constant.

  We don't need to parse for default value of event source, it is only  for case when user gives some specific name to
event_sourcein  postgresql.conf and it that case, we expect that user provides the same name during register command of
eventsource, some thing like: regsvr32 /n /i: PostgreSQL_HEAD <install_dir_path>\lib\pgevent32.dll
 
 Here point to note is that pgevent.dll never does any parsing or lookup for event source name, either user provides it
orwe use default value.
