Add an API that returns the diagram librairies versions and the server version

See original GitHub issue

Currently, we only have an HTML page https://a.kroki.io but it could be useful to have an endpoint if we want to use that information programmatically.

For instance, we could locally cache images depending on the diagram library version:

plantuml-1-2020-10/

plantuml-1-2020-15/
  54cae01691d18960adccb024b0e5b01b.png

A few ideas:

/about
/version
/versions

Alternatively, we could also use a “status” route to check that the server is alive and we could use this opportunity to return server infos:

/status
/_status

Yes that’s a good idea, I took inspirations from Elasticsearch:

curl -XGET localhost:9200

{
    "name": "node",
    "cluster_name": "elasticsearch-cluster",
    "version": {
        "number": "2.3.4",
        "build_hash": "dcxbgvzdfbbhfxbhx",
        "build_timestamp": "2016-06-30T11:24:31Z",
        "build_snapshot": false,
        "lucene_version": "5.5.0"
    },
    "tagline": "You Know, for Search"
}

But your last proposal is quite nice 👍
