Description
We need a feature in compute worker to communicate with codabench and check for any critical or non critical upgrades available
- If a critical upgrade is found, compute worker will fail with a nice message
- If the upgrade is not critical then computer worker prints a warning
- if no upgrade just execute normally
Update
We decied to go for a minimum version that require no or less tweaks. This min version compares local image date with remote image date to figure out if local image is behind the remote. For more details check the PR #2377

Research direction
The issue names the compute worker and Codabench, with implementation details in open PR #2377; start by reviewing that PR and its minimum-version approach. Done means the worker compares local and remote image dates, fails with a clear message for critical upgrades, warns for non-critical upgrades, and runs normally when no upgrade is available.
