mergify[bot] 363b75619f adds shred-version to ip-echo-server response (backport #18066) (#18113)
* adds shred-version to ip-echo-server response

When starting a validator, the node initially joins gossip with
shred_verison = 0, until it adopts the entrypoint's shred-version:
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/9b182f408/validator/src/main.rs#L417

Depending on the load on the entrypoint, this adopting entrypoint
shred-version through gossip sometimes becomes very slow, and causes
several problems in gossip because we have to partially support
shred_version == 0 which is a source of leaking crds values from one
cluster to another. e.g. see
https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/pull/17899
and the other linked issues there.

In order to remove shred_version == 0 from gossip, this commit adds
shred-version to ip-echo-server response. Once the entrypoints are
updated, on validator start-up, if --expected_shred_version is not
specified we will obtain shred-version from the entrypoint using
ip-echo-server.

(cherry picked from commit 598093b5db)
