[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH] filters: Bump API version

We do not promise API compatibility for filters between stable releases of nbdkit, however, we should at least ensure that when we do break API, that we refuse to load a filter compiled against one version of nbdkit with another server running a different API. A single bump once per stable release is good enough (rather than once per API change). We did this correctly for commits b0ce4411/cb309687/df0cc21d (bumping to API version 2 for the combined changes between v1.2 and v1.4), but failed to do so for f184fdc3 (affecting v1.10), 4ca66f70 (affecting v1.12), or 5ee7bd29/ee61d232 (affecting the upcoming v1.14). So do it retroacively now, as well as backporting intermediate bumps to affected stable branches.
