addons-server: URL `/addon/:slug/versions/:versionId/` is not redirected anymore
I found a new issue with this URL (found in the Dev Hub): https://addons-dev.allizom.org/en-US/firefox/addon/guarani-paraguay-lang-pack/versions/66.0buildid20190207161357/
The new frontend does not support URLs like this, we only support /addon/:slug/versions/
.
@bobsilverberg @muffinresearch do you remember any decision about that? (i.e. about not supporting a URL for a specific version of an add-on).

@ioanarusiczki yeah that functionality doesn’t exist any more - the urls are just redirected back to the versions page; there’s isn’t anything that looks up the version string and translates it to a page number
We can drop the link to a specific version in devhub, but this will need frontend or nginx work to handle the redirect for existing versions.
On the other hand, if you do continue to support linking to a version (and, IMO, you should as permalinks are a good thing) then please detail what API changes you would need. (You’ll need to do mozilla/addons-frontend#7542 first)
