cve-check: replace Looseversion with custom version class
The way distutils.version.LooseVersion compare version are tricky, it treat all these ( "1.0-beta2", "1.0-rc1", "1.0A", "1.0p2" and "1.0pre1") as greater version than "1.0". This might be right for "1.0A" and "1.0p1" but not for the rest, also these version could be confusing, the "p" in "1.0p1" can be "pre" or "patched" version or even other meaning. Replace Looseversion with custom class, it uses regex to capture common version format like "1.1.1" or tag format using date like "2020-12-12" as release section, check for following known string/tags ( beta, rc, pre, dev, alpha, preview) as pre-release section, any other trailing characters are difficult to understand/define so ignore them. Compare release section and pre-release section saperately. included selftest for the version class. [YOCTO#14127] Signed-off-by:Lee Chee Yang <chee.yang.lee@intel.com> Signed-off-by:
