Issue a UserWarning if there is a new client version available/required #221

Ran into backwards compatibility issues twice in the past two weeks, see https://github.com/coiled/feedback/issues/216

I believe UX would be much better here if there was a warning letting me know that I can / should upgrade

Hrm, I thought we had a minimum supported version of coiled in the backend and already raised an informative error message. It's been a while, so maybe that's no longer the case. Agreed it would be good to let users know if they're using an older version of coiled that's no longer supported

We do but we're bad at making sure the minimum version actually works, especially with a new feature like package sync.
