📄 Description

So the basics of this is if the user is using a specific versioned boot medium ( self hosted users and people specifically looking for versioned endpoint ) we do not include the upgrade logic it is redundant as they are already pointed to a static endpoint but there is also no need for it. They will see this specific version in their menu when booting.

If the user downloads the standard rolling release looking at the latest endpoints they will be pinged for an upgrade if we do a major version change ( 2.x to 3.x ) signifying we have made a significant change to the boot medium files and need it's functionality for the new menu files.

Let me know if you have any questions.
