Clarify vers representation of Elixir `~>` range with pre-release semantics

[maennchen]

In Elixir, SemVer version requirements may use the ~> operator.

Examples (naive translation):

• ~> 0.1 → >= 0.1.0, < 1.0.0
• ~> 0.1.5 → >= 0.1.5, < 0.2.0

Ref: https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/Version.html#module-requirements

However, because pre-release versions (e.g. -alpha, -beta, etc.) are ordered before their corresponding release version, these translations are not accurate.

Example:

iex> Version.match?("0.2.0-alpha.7", "~> 0.1.5")
false

iex> Version.match?("0.2.0-alpha.7", ">= 0.1.5 and <= 0.2.0")
true

iex> Version.compare("0.2.0-alpha.7", "0.2.0")
:lt

Therefore:

~> 0.1.5 ≠ >= 0.1.5, < 0.2.0

How should ~> be represented in vers, considering pre-release ordering semantics?

I believe this also affects the ^ operator in NPM:
