Draft: Include CE/EE hint in "version mismatch" error
What does this MR do?
When users upgrade from CE to EE and want to import a CE backup, the resulting error message does not make it clear, that
according to the backup and restore docu "exactly the same version and type" are required:
Your current GitLab version (X.Y.Z-ee) differs from the GitLab version in the backup!
Please switch to the following version and try again:
version: X.Y.Z
CE
or -ce
are not mentioned, because CE doesn't use that VERSION
suffix.
An alternative to this text change might be a code change that explicitely checks the type as well.
