Add information about how the peers protocol send/receive entries of
LRU caches for literal dictionaries (e.g. server names in replacement
for server IDs).
Tim Düsterhus noticed that the create-release script had mangled the
version in the peers protocol doc, forcing it to 1.8 due to its syntax
matching the format of an haproxy version. Let's just slightly readjust
the header not to match this by removing the word "version" and placing
it on the same line as the title.
