The problem

I have AdGuard set to auto-update (via Watchtower). When a new version is installed, I'm often curious what's changed. Right now, I have to navigate to the GitHub repo and find the release that matches the version number in the footer of my instance.

Proposed solution

Update the version number in the footer to link to https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/releases/tag/vX.X.X where X.X.X is the version number.

Alternatives considered and additional information

I'd be happy to take a pass at a PR (and would be eager to make my first contribution) if someone could help point me in the right direction.

I'm relatively new to React, but if it's a matter of wrapping https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/blob/master/client/src/components/ui/Version.js#L32 in an <a href... I can do that, assuming there's interest in supporting this enhancement.

This would likely need an API extension as well, since the current HTTP API does not expose the release channel to the frontend, which is required, because development, edge, and release-candidate versions do not have their own pages.
