feat: add persistent shared version cache for multiple connections

- Add version-cache.ts with file-based persistence
- 150 connections = 1 request (not 150) via request deduplication
- Cache survives server restarts via .baileys-version-cache.json
- Export cache utilities: getCachedVersion, refreshVersionCache, clearVersionCache
- Update makeWASocketAutoVersion to use shared cache
