Snapshot Info doesn't indicate elastic search version #11980

Description

@gingerwizard

Calling

GET /_snapshot//

includes various information but not the elasticsearch version.

This is useful in a number of scenarios. Although elasticsearch prevents restores between index versions if the snapshot.version > cluster.version, this information would allow client side checks i.e. the client could avoid having to check compatibility by making a restore and noticing it fails.
