This is because version is not required for those test definitions
which reside in git or bzr repository. lava-test-shell will get the
version from git/bzr repo automatically. Only if the test definition
is referred from a URL the version parameter should be explicit.

I shall document it in lava-test-shell sometime tomorrow.

This is up-to-date now.

These users are identified. As soon the document is available we will
point them to it.
