Feature Improvement: Add more clear error handling for incompatible version of DDEV Local
Hello!
What happened (or feature request):
I ran into an issue getting the DDEV UI app up and running this morning. It looked as though I was unable to pass the docker check that occurs before you are redirected to the application itself. After much digging and poking, it turned out I was using and out of date version of DDEV Local. It wasn't very clear that there was an issue with the versioning of DDEV local given that the docker check was failing and no additional messaging was provide.
We may want to consider updating the error messaging here to be more clear about what the actual issue is and how to resolve it! Nathan mentioned that doing checks for the DDEV local version on the app side would also help make this clearer.
What you expected to happen:
If the version of DDEV local needs to be updated and is preventing me from being able access the application, we should have error messaging stating that for clarity and transparency.
How to reproduce this:
Have an out of date version of DDEV local and attempt to run the GUI.
Please use a complexity rating of 1-5 (5 is high) for a feature request. (High complexity implies more PR planning)
