Ranges

Ranges work as you expect, but there are caveats for prerelease identifiers, here are the rules:

1.0.0..<2.0.0 does not include eg. 2.0.0-alpha

This is probably what you expected. However:

1.0.0..<2.0.0 also does not include eg. 1.5.0-alpha

However:

1.0.0..<2.0.0-beta does include eg. 2.0.0-alpha

This is how the majority of Semantic Version libraries work.

Comparable, Equatable & Hashable

Both comparable and equatable ignore build metadata as per the specification. Thus:

Version("1.2.3+14") == Version("1.2.3+15")  // => true
Version("1.2.3+14") <= Version("1.2.3+15")  // => true
Version("1.2.3+14") <  Version("1.2.3+15")  // => false

This also means that Hashable must mirror this behavior, thus:

dict[Version("1.2.3+14")] = 1
dict[Version("1.2.3+15")] = 2
dict.count  // => 1
dict        // => ["1.2.3+15": 2]

Be aware of this as it may catch you out, naturally this will also effect structures that depend on Hashable, eg. Set.
