Description
https://github.com/IntersectMBO/lsm-tree/blob/934503f5f8f12014b8ac23a4212bfc280a1365e0/lsm-tree/src-core/Database/LSMTree/Internal/Snapshot/Codec.hs#L222-L230
It could probably say unsupported rather than unknown and have a helpful message about it being a future version
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start at lsm-tree/src-core/Database/LSMTree/Internal/Snapshot/Codec.hs lines 222–230 and inspect how unsupported snapshot version numbers are reported. Update the error wording to distinguish an unsupported future version from an unknown one and make the message helpful; done means the relevant failure reports that it is a future version.
