client ServerVersionResult struct missing JSON marshaling tags #51476

Description

This PR: #51233 introduced a new ServerVersionResult struct used by the client.

However, this struct does not contain marshaling JSON tags as in e.g. VersionResponse from system https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/master/api/types/system/version_response.go.

This causes inconsistencies with the previous docker version 28.x, in particular, the returned marshalled API version is now APIVersion where it previously was ApiVersion. This broke downstream code expecting the correct case.

Reproduce

  1. Update to docker 29.0.0
  2. Run docker version --format "{{ json . }}" the Server entry returns APIVersion with an incorrect case.

Expected behavior

docker version --format "{{ json . }}" should return ApiVersion in the Server struct.
