Description

If a worker is connecting to the scheduler it both sides should express what version of nativelink they have in the metadata and validate that they match and if they don't throw a warning.

This will make it easier to see if any errors being thrown are related to an API change.

Research direction
Implement version metadata exchange between worker and scheduler during connection, compare versions, and log a warning if mismatched.
