You seem to be assuming that PG extensions have versioning matching
the core server. There's no requirement for that, and it doesn't
look like these extensions attempt to keep those numbers in sync.
The underlying compiled modules (.so files) do need to be updated
for each major server version. But if they load and work then
that's happened. The "extension version" is just an arbitrary
identifier for the version of the extension's SQL-level declarations,
which frequently don't need to change for a server update.
