- Git version tags will now be parsed leniently, allowing for tags like 2.0 to be treated equivelently to 2.0.0. - Previous behavior was that a tag without a v-prefix would be preferred over one with a v-prefix. This behavior was maintained. - A tag with more version components is preferred. 2.0.0 will be preferred over 2.0.

thank you @colincornaby <3 |
Motivation:
While implementing SPM manifests in existing Git repos, I found many were using two component tags where the patch version was 0. The intention behind this change is to better support that Git tagging pattern without retraining existing teams, or causing SPM integration to be disruptive to existing tagging practices.
Modifications:
Lenient parsing was added to swift-tools-support-core at swiftlang/swift-tools-support-core#212. The tag based initializer for Version was altered to use this new lenient initializer.
It’s possible for two tags with the same meaning but different literal strings to be present in the same repository. This case did exist previously. Tags like v2.0.0 and 2.0.0 could conflict, and a decision about which tag to use would be required.
Result:
Git tags with two version components will now be supported and parsed as if there was a patch version of .0 appended to the end.
