This splits out the versiondb part of #872. This ensures that any updates to versiondb that happen while #872 is in development don't require re-syncing, and it will mean that tests will pass locally. (Though the test that failed locally that was related to this mysteriously passed on CI in #872.)

For some reason, versions.json lists the FreeBSD triplet with the suffix 11.1, which does not reflect the version of FreeBSD used for building and has not been supported for a long time, by us or upstream. In fact, the current FreeBSD binaries won't work on anything before 13.2. But in order to use versions.json without some special-casing and/or refactoring, we can just retain the weird suffix.

I verified locally that the changes made here work, but I didn't include the output as part of this PR. I figured that we can rerun the versiondb update after this is merged so that everything is in a fully consistent state.
