Throw an error on non-valid version numbers. Like with `[semver]'1.0.0-beta!1'` which gives:\r\n\r\n```console\r\nInvalidArgument: Cannot convert value \"1.0.0-beta!1\" to type \"System.Management.Automation.SemanticVersion\". Error: \"The input string '' was not in a correct format.\"\r\n```\r\n\r\n\r\n### Actual behavior\r\n\r\n```console\r\nPS \u003e [semver]'1.0.0-beta...1'\r\n\r\nMajor  Minor  Patch  PreReleaseLabel BuildLabel\r\n-----  -----  -----  --------------- ----------\r\n1      0      0      beta...1\r\n\r\nPS \u003e\r\n```\r\n\r\n\r\n### Error details\r\n\r\n_No response_\r\n\r\n### Environment data\r\n\r\n* PowerShell v7.4.1 x64\r\n* Windows 11 23H2 x64\r\n\r\n### Visuals\r\n\r\n_No response_","author":{"url":"https://github.com/o-l-a-v","@type":"Person","name":"o-l-a-v"},"datePublished":"2024-03-27T15:19:49.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":1},"url":"https://github.com/21383/PowerShell/issues/21383"}
