Description

### Implementation ideas

This issue proposes adding a versioning system to the JSON RPC API that would allow us to slowly deprecate older API methods (adding is trivial) so as to give users apt time to migrate to the newer API methods. Ideally this introduction itself is done in a backwards compatible change (i.e. no version specified is interpreted as v1).

How versioning is done (in the url vs in the method vs in the params) is left to be decided.
