agent: Implement basics for API Versioning
This commit introduces the basics needed to support API versioning between
the ovirt-guest-agent and VDSM.
How the negotiation works:
- VDSM has as a default the apiVersion value set to _DISABLED_API_VALUE marking
it as unsupported
- The guest agent sends its max supported version with every `heartbeat`
message
- VDSM checks that `apiVersion` exists in the `heartbeat` message arguments
- If it exists it retrieves the minimum common version and sends the
`api-version` message with the common version as `apiVersion` argument
- If it does NOT exist it and the apiVersion is not set to
_DISABLED_API_VALUE it will set it to _DISABLED_API_VALUE, with the meaning
that it is not supported at all by the guest agent on the other end.
- The guest agent on receiving this message makes it own check and sets the
`apiVersion` to the commonVersion
- If VDSM sends the `refresh` command it also sends its `apiVersion` value
however if it does not, capable guest agents are disabling the versioning
support and will know it in pre-supported state as well.
NOTE: VDSM will never send an api-version message without being triggered.
This is to ensure backwards compatibility.
