Description

We might want to add a spec or schema version property to the metadata table and require individual mbtiles to specify which version of the spec they conform to. It could help applications handle any breaking changes in the future.

Research direction

Start by reading the existing MBTiles specification documents and the metadata table requirements. Determine the intended version property's format, required behavior, and compatibility expectations before implementation. Done should be a decided, documented versioning rule, including how individual MBTiles files declare the specification version they follow.
