Description

Currently, an older version of gfsh can connect to a newer version JMX manager, but when a command is invoked, it'll fail with a cryptic message.

An example is:

9.1.1 JMX manager
9.0.3 gfsh

Attempting to execute a query with this scenario logs a 'Could not parse command string' message:

gfsh>query --query='SELECT sauce FROM /data' --interactive=true
Could not parse command string. query --query='SELECT sauce FROM /data' --interactive=true --step-name=SELECT_EXEC

Instead, gfsh should fail at connect time with an IncompatibleVersionException or something similar.
