Description

as experienced in #977: https://github.com/oxidecomputer/propolis/pull/977/files#r2582502490

I'm not even sure if we can nicely discover what the latest supported API for a propolis-server is, from just a git hash for base. but we'll want to pick a different client for the older API so we can drive the base propolis at all in these tests! (un)fortunately this has no relationship to the actual ability to migrate, which should work regardless.

Research direction

Begin with the files and review discussion linked from pull request #977, especially comment r2582502490. Determine how a base git hash can identify the latest supported propolis-server API and how tests should select a compatible client for older APIs. Done means tests can drive the base propolis while preserving migration behavior.
