Problem: Using `version=vim.version.range(...)` in plugin specification
is meant to use semver-like tags. Whether a tag is semver-like was
decided by a plain `vim.version.parse` which is not strict by default.
This allowed treating tags like `nvim-0.6` (which is usually reserved
for the latest revision compatible with Nvim<=0.6 version) like semver
tags and resulted in confusing behavior (preferring `nvim-0.6` tag
over `v0.2.2`, for example).
Solution: Use `vim.version.range(x, { strict = true })` to decide if the
tag name is semver-like or not. This allows tags like both `v1.2.3`
and `1.2.3` while being consistent in what Nvim thinks is a semver
string.
This is technically not a breaking change since it was documented that
only tags like `v<major>.<minor>.<patch>` will be recognized as
semver.
