(Feature Request) Add "Version added"

[NicBright]

Hello there,

(oops, I originally intended to open this issue in the dgeni repository. Is it possible to move it there? Otherwise please just delete it here and I will reopen it in the dgeni repository).

especially when learning AngularJS, it's common for a developer to lookup and browse the docs (https://docs.angularjs.org) to get a better feeling about the API in general. What often bothers me here is, that I'm reading about cool features only to discover later, that it's been added only in a very recent version and that I cannot use it right now given the version currently used in my employer's stack. I know that I could just as easily switch to the archived docs of that particular version, but then I would be missing the cool new features ... I personally only switch back to old documentation versions when tackling a bug that I can't understand otherwise.

That's why I think it'd be very useful if you could include the initial version of a feature.
E.g. take a look at the beauty of the jQuery API documentation regarding this aspect:

I'm not sure whether it is feasible automatically through knowledge of previous builds or whether it is a feature that needs to be actively supported by the writers of the documentation (e.g. using certain annotation placeholders that get automatically resolved when a new version is released).

Nevertheless, I'd love to see that in the AngularJS docs :-)

Regards,
Nicolas

This would require modification in the ngdoc package in dgeni-packages, as well as combing previous versions of Angular for each feature to add the appropriate jsdoc annotations.

This could be a useful addition for the docs, and could potentially ease searchability.
