According to rfc2986 the only valid version is 0. No newer rfc changed
that.
See section 4.1:
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2986#section-4.1
Manually verifying the CSR with openssl results in the following error:
```
$ openssl req -in bad.csr -text -noout
Certificate Request:
Data:
Version: Unknown (2)
```

I wasn't able to create a test setup where I could test this yet, will
try again on monday.
Stoiko tested it on his setup with Let's Encrypt Staging and it worked
fine. Although he didn't extract the CSR to verify it.
A customer reported the issue in the enterprise support portal and
provided the fix as well.
