Adding Client & Server App version info

[the-hotmann]

I think it would be cool to be able to see which version of the Web-Client and of the Shlink Application one is using.

Web-Client version is always the same but if I log in into another Server the Server should tell the Web-Client which version he is running on so people know when they use outdated versions.

I just quickly made a little demo how I think it could look.

ALL:

Zoomed:

If you like it and want to implement it I just give you the Code here:

1. append (to last) in the div with the class "shlink-container" a <div> with a class vInfo.
2. add text with App info.
3. add the CSS:

.vInfo{
    position: absolute;
    right: 1em;
    bottom: 1em;
    font-size: 12px;
    color: #bbb;
}

Ofc you can edit it so it fits however you think is the best.

But atm I dont know if Shlink itself even provides the information about its own app (Server) version info. But at least I could not find it here (LINK)
Client version info can be hardcoded in each web-client version in the html.

Would look like this:

code to be added: <div class="vInfo">Client: v2.3.1 | Server: v$server_version </div>

This makes a lot of sense, and it's easily doable, because shlink-web-client is already fetching this information in order to dynamically show/hide components based on the server's capabilities.

@Martinh0 I have just implemented it and it will be part of the next release.
