Changes the current behavior of the "version" parameter by moving away
from string prefix matching to actually parsing provided (partial)
versions. As a result, for example, "version=0.3.2.1" doesn't
magically include versions 0.3.2.10 to 0.3.2.19, 0.3.2.100 to
0.3.2.199, etc. anymore. Without this change, version ranges would
have become just too confusing. The downside is that this change
requires a major version bump.

Implements #6947.
