Show Desktop App version on About modal, allow click to copy for both server and desktop app versions

[Combs7th]

@claude, Let's update the Mattermost Product Documentation to reflect the admin and end user product experience from Mattermost server v11.2 onward captured via engineering PR mattermost/mattermost#33960.

Before proposing any changes:

• First, make an assessment on whether or not a doc update is even necessary for this PR.
• If it is necessary: Identify the existing admin and end user documentation page(s) most closely related to the About menu.
• Analyze the writing style, tone, structure, headings, and formatting patterns used on those pages.

When drafting updates:

• Match the existing voice and writing patterns of the page as closely as possible.
• Follow the same heading hierarchy and formatting conventions already in use.
• Avoid introducing new sections unless absolutely necessary.

Focus the docs update on:

• What has changed from the relevant persona’s perspective
• Where this change is surfaced in the product or UI
• When or why the persona would need to be aware of this change

DO NOT suggest changes to the following docs pages:

• changelogs
• important upgrade notes
• version archive
• removed and deprecated features
• unsupported legacy releases

Documentation Analysis for About Modal Changes ✅

I've successfully analyzed the engineering PR and updated the documentation for the About modal Desktop App version feature.

Todo List:

• Read repository setup instructions from CLAUDE.md
• Analyze engineering PR #33960 to understand changes
• Search for existing About menu/modal documentation
• Assess if documentation update is necessary
• Analyze writing style and formatting patterns of existing docs
• Draft documentation updates to include Desktop App version info
• Update view-system-information.rst with new About modal features
• Commit and push documentation changes

Analysis Results

Changes Found in v11.2:
The Desktop App version is now shown on the About modal, allowing clicking to copy both the server and desktop app versions.

Documentation Update Made:
Updated source/end-user-guide/collaborate/view-system-information.rst to include:

• Desktop App Version: Added to the list of information displayed in the About dialog
• Click-to-copy functionality: Documented for both Mattermost Version and Desktop App Version
• Context clarity: Specified that Desktop App Version only appears when using the Desktop App

The update follows the existing documentation patterns:

• Maintains the bullet list format with bold feature names
• Uses concise, user-focused descriptions
• Follows the same tone and structure as existing content
• Specifies when/where the feature appears

Implementation Complete

Changes have been committed and pushed to the branch. The documentation now accurately reflects the user experience from Mattermost server v11.2 onward.
