The plan here is to make svn_opt__get_version_info public, so that other
clients built on top of the core Subversion libraries -- e.g.,
TortoiseSVN -- can use it directly instead of having to construct their
own version info.

I /think/ this would be a useful addition to the API, but would welcome
any comments on this plan.
