rbd: stop tracking header object version
The rbd code takes care to maintain the version of the header object. This was done in hopes of using it to detect a change in the object between reading it and setting up a watch request to be notified of changes. The mechanism was never fully implemented, however. And we now avoid the original problem by setting up the watch request before ever reading the content of the header. The osd doesn't interpret the object version supplied with a WATCH osd op, nor does it use the version supplied with a NOTIFY_ACK op (we can just supply 0 for both). There is therefore no need to maintain the header's object version any more, so stop doing so. We'll be able to simplify some more rbd code in the next few patches as a result of this.
