'hermes --version' (and -V) now prints the full version report — banner
version line with upstream SHA, install directory, authoritative install
method, Python and OpenAI SDK versions, and update status — making the
separate 'hermes version' subcommand redundant. The subcommand is removed.
- _startup_fast.print_fast_version_info() is now THE canonical version
printer: static lines print instantly from stdlib probes, then the
banner label, install-method resolver, and update check lazy-import
after the first line is on screen (each degrades gracefully).
- main.py _print_version_info() delegates to it (used by /version in the
CLI chat surface and the --version flag path); the old duplicate
implementation is deleted.
- hermes_cli/subcommands/version.py removed; parser wiring, subcommand
sets, console-engine extraction entry, and tests updated. Hermes
Console keeps a 'version' command wired to the shared printer.
- Termux fast paths now include update status too (previously
check_updates=False).
- Docs/i18n, CONTRIBUTING, SECURITY, and nix checks updated to
'hermes --version'.
