Right now, the JSON dump format is a sequence of JSON objects. Each of these JSON objects is a Wikidata entity. There is nothing preventing the dump format from having the first JSON object be information about the dump, including version of the dump format, version of wikidata format, time of dump, etc.
As long as this JSON object did not conform to the form of JSON objects that encode Wikidata entities this change would not be a breaking change! (I do think that it would be better for it to not have any of the names that are currently being used in JSON objects that encode Wikidata entities.)
