Problem Statement

Within the web interface it currently isn't possible to check which version of Open Archiver is installed. This makes it difficult to know if a new version is available, and, in turn, figure out whether I need to update.

Proposed Solution

The current version of the application could be displayed somewhere in the menu (under settings?), on the Systems Settings page, or somewhere else. It would be great if the version info linked back to Open Archiver's GitHub page (so one can manually check if there is a newer version available), or if there was some automated checking logic that fetches info regarding the current version installed versus the newest version available.
