[Casper] Update /usr/sbin/jamf version: 5.11 to 6.01

[Justin Crowe]

Hello,

We had the same problem.  I contacted support about it and apparently  
if you are going over HTTPS 5.11 will not upgrade over HTTPS only  
HTTP.  In our case we had to create a version 6 quickadd package and  
create a policy.  The policy installs the quickadd package and also  
runs jamf upgrade which will check the server to make sure that it has  
the correct version.
