Numeric numbering with 0 as "beta" is used by many packaging schemes,
and would not confuse anyone.

I am positive on getting rid of the labels and use the scheme proposed
by Kinkie.

To answer Alex regarding the RC (Release Candidate) this is not a
release tag in itself. It's more of a temporary flag. It has also used
between STABLE releases if there has been large or packaging changes,
and those releases is not announced outside squid-dev or visible on the
web site.
