Introduced version 4 of the NimSuggest protocol. The InlayHints feature made V4 or later only. (#22953)

Since nimsuggest now has a protocol version support detection via
`--info:protocolVer`, the InlayHints feature can be moved to protocol
V4. This way, the Nim language server can detect the nimsuggest version
and avoid sending unsupported `InlayHints` commands to older nimsuggest
versions. Related nim language server PR:
