## Why
Puppetboard 7.0.1 cannot run against pdbmux: it exits at import when
/pdb/meta/v1/version 404s, and its landing page, metrics and radiator views
404 on the Jolokia surface.
## How
- Serve /pdb/meta/v1/version, reporting the lowest version any backend runs,
and /pdb/meta/v1/server-time from the first reachable backend.
- Merge the Jolokia surface (/metrics/v2/read, /metrics/v2/list,
/metrics/v1/mbeans): objects union, numeric attributes sum by default, and
Min/Max/Uptime/StartTime plus the distribution stats take a bound or a mean.
- Route /nodes extract-count queries to the summing path ahead of the certname
merge, and give /resources aggregates the same path.
- Document the endpoints and merge semantics in the README.
- Cover version disagreement, metric rules, escaped MBean names, count summing
and the non-aggregate /nodes merge with httptest backends.
