Several Commands were missing the 'version' option. Add it to those that were missing it. Do not remove the version option before calling commands. This means methods such as execute(), forward(), run() receive it. Several of these needed `**options` added to their signatures. Commands in the Cert plugin passed any unknown options to the underlying functions, these are changed to pass what's needed explicitly. Some commands in DNS and Batch plugins now pass version to commands they call. When the option is not given, fill it in automatically. (In a subsequent commit, a warning will be added in this case). Note that the public API did not change: all RPC calls already accepted a version option. There's no need for an API version bump (even though API.txt changes substantially).

IPA Server
What is it?
-----------
For efficiency, compliance and risk mitigation, organizations need to
centrally manage and correlate vital security information including:
* Identity (machine, user, virtual machines, groups, authentication
credentials)
* Policy (configuration settings, access control information)
* Audit (events, logs, analysis thereof)
Since these are not new problems. there exist many approaches and
products focused on addressing them. However, these tend to have the
following weaknesses:
* Focus on solving identity management across the enterprise has meant
less focus on policy and audit.
* Vendor focus on Web identity management problems has meant less well
developed solutions for central management of the Linux and Unix
world's vital security info. Organizations are forced to maintain
a hodgepodge of internal and proprietary solutions at high TCO.
* Proprietary security products don't easily provide access to the
vital security information they collect or manage. This makes it
difficult to synchronize and analyze effectively.
