+fix: BuildVersion now correctly reads from project's package.json

+- Fixed getBuildVersion() to accept optional root parameter for correct directory resolution
+- Updated StatsManager to use compiler.context when determining build version
+- Ensures buildVersion in mf-manifest.json matches the project's package.json version
+- Resolves issue #3835 where buildVersion was reading from wrong package.json location
