is there any specific reason for the Api Version in line "RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/api/v1/websocket [NC,OR]" ?
Why not v3, or v4 or a RegEx?
Should i change this manually from version to version of mattermost?

It always worked for me. I updated the regex with a numeric match to any version anyway. The ProxyPassReverse path also lacked a "v" before the version number, but this never seemed to be a problem.

This config now closely resembles the unofficial apache config in the Mattermost docs.
