Symptom (bug) / Objective (enhancement)

Enhancement: Ability to detect iTop API versions 1.3 and 1.4 ( https://www.itophub.io/wiki/page?id=latest:advancedtopics:rest_json#changes_history )

It also changes the logic to try most recent versions of the API first.

Proposed solution (bug and enhancement)

Just add the missing values.

The exception now also contains hints on what can go wrong (invalid URL, invalid credentials, missing profile, ... ).

Before the patch; it would just try all versions; then assume iTop API version 1.0 and fail later on.

Thanks for your PR, it got functionally accepted. We'll perform technical review in the upcoming days/weeks.

Approved.

The weirdest part is that this method is only used purely for log message, so actually it doesn't add much value.
