title: Set build number for Jenkins workflow (pipeline) builds
body: <p>I am migrating  jenkins-workflow job to new template based workflow job.  Because the build number is used as part of the version of build artifacts the workflow produces I have to start build number of the new workflow with a number greater than the old workflow.  Unfortunately 'Next Build Number' plugin does not work with workflow pipeline.  </p>
  
  <p>Anybody knows a good way do this?</p>
