Summary	0034578: API - allow access to obsolete/inherited versions
Description	Hello, Currently, once a version has been marked as Obsolete, it is not possible to access it through the REST-JSON API, since only the active versions are returned. It would be useful to add some parameters (for instance `obsolete=true` and `inherited=true`) in the request URL so the client can explicitly choose to received them in the response.
Additional Information	A first basic proposal was made in this PR without parameters.
Tags	No tags attached.
