`puppet --version` and `puppet agent --version` are effectively the same and are testing the version of the puppet executable. This comes from a puppet or puppet-agent package, depending on where you're getting it from. The `puppetserver --version` is testing the puppetserver executable, which is a Clojure JVM that runs the puppetmaster service. This is typically provided by the package puppetserver.
When it is time to upgrade, you would likely upgrade both puppetserver and puppet/puppet-agent. In rpm parlance I would run `rpm -qa | grep puppet` to see what puppet-related packages are present, and then upgrade those. If you can do something similar with apt, you can determine what the package names are and then upgrade them. For more details on upgrades, you can review https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/4.5/reference/architecture.html. Always read the release notes and upgrade directions all the way through before beginning, as there are sometimes warnings and gotchas you need to be aware of.
