      It is a follow-up to JENKINS-48761. Currently Jenkins Core does not specify a minimal-supported version, so users do not even got warnings when they use old Remoting versions without using a Version Column plugin (CC batmat)

      I propose to enhance the behavior:

      • Define a minimal supported version within the core
      • Where to return the data?
        • Make the version available via Jenkins API
        • The minimal supported version should be returned in TcpAgentListener's headers so that Agent can process it on its side
        • Nice2Have: The minimal supported version should returned in the Jenkins WAR Manifest
      • Diagnostics:
        • Warning in agent connection log when the version older than the Minimal one is connected. The connection whould not be aborted, user should just know he runs in YOLO mode
        • Warning in the log on the Remoting side (separate ticket - TODO)
        • Nice2Have: Warning on the agent main page
        • Nice2Have: Administrative monitor OR support in Version Column Plugin
        • Nice2Have: Warning in the Support Core plugin
