versioning:
  scheme: semantic-ish MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH for core; JSON:API and REST surfaces are versioned by the core release,
    not by a URL version segment
  in_url: false
  note: Drupal core carries the API contract. There is no /v1/ path segment on JSON:API or REST — /jsonapi and /<entity>?_format=json
    are stable paths whose behaviour is tied to the installed core version.

      response headers. No Deprecation or Sunset header was observed on https://www.drupal.org/api-d7/node.json.
