Description
Inside the Keybase shell / console we can easily do a keybase --version, but how can we see which version of the desktop client we're running on Windows? I would have considered an "About" entry under the "help" in the main program menu.

Research direction
Start by inspecting the Windows desktop client's main program menu and how the existing keybase --version command obtains its version. Add an About entry that exposes the running desktop client version, then verify that the version is visible from the Windows menu.
