Description
Behavior of command line option -version is incorrect with Scala 3 (see also issue 11453) :
Scala 2 output
Behavior is consistent between scala, scalac and scaladoc :
$ export JAVA_HOME=/c/opt/jdk-1.8.0_282-b08/
user@host MINGW64 /w/dotty
$ /c/opt/scala-2.13.4/bin/scala -version

$ /c/opt/scala-2.13.4/bin/scaladoc -version

Scala 3 output
Only scalac behaves correctly :

$ /c/opt/scala-3.0.0-RC1/bin/scala -version

Same behavior for Scala 2 and Scala 3.
