You're over thinking this.

Increment your version number.

Log into iTunes Connect. Click on your application. Click the 'Add Version' button.

Go through the steps to submit your latest build with it's updated version. Once approved new users will be able to download it, and existing users will be able to update to it. There will not be two versions on the app store - just one; your latest.

Apple have thought this through for you ;)

If you update your app on the AppStore the old version is removed once the update is approved. The new version will replace the existing one. Your app will not show up in the AppStore with 2 different versions.

Users who have the old version will see an update. New users will only be able to install the newly added update.
