Allow version comparison to contain epoch specifier
Adapting from RPM, follow the [epoch:]version[-release] syntax. We can also borrow some of their parsing code for our purposes (thanks!). Add some new tests to our vercmp shell script tester for epoch comparisons, and then make the code work with these newfangled epoch specifiers. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
