Enable fourth part or additional tag for tool cache versioning

I am trying to author a JavaScript action to leverage the tool cache. The software that I would like to cache requires a fourth part for the version number. An additional tag would also work.

Currently, tool-cache is leveraging semver.clean to restrict to a version of type X.Y.Z. It looks like semver.clean is in several functions in tool-cache.ts, but it is something like semver.clean(version) || version. In the find function in tool-cache, there is a line versionSpec = semver.clean(versionSpec) || '' that makes this a hard requirement.

Would it be possible to either loosen this restriction or use semver.clean(version, { loose: true }) to allow a tag to be applied when caching and searching the tool-cache?

Thanks,
David

Start in tool-cache.ts, especially the find function and the other semver.clean call sites, to trace how versions are normalized. The change is done when tool-cache can cache and search software using a fourth version part or an additional tag, rather than requiring only X.Y.Z.
