Remove the requirement to authenticate for /admin/server_version. (#5122)
This endpoint isn't much use for its intended purpose if you first need to get
yourself an admin's auth token.

I've restricted it to the `/_synapse/admin` path to make it a bit easier to
lock down for those concerned about exposing this information. I don't imagine
anyone is using it in anger currently.

Version API
===========
This API returns the running Synapse version and the Python version
on which Synapse is being run. This is useful when a Synapse instance
is behind a proxy that does not forward the 'Server' header (which also
contains Synapse version information).
The api is::
GET /_synapse/admin/v1/server_version
It returns a JSON body like the following:
.. code:: json
{
"server_version": "0.99.2rc1 (b=develop, abcdef123)",
"python_version": "3.6.8"
}
