Description

Version used: 0.19.0

Trying to install dotnet-6.0-sdk (prerelease version). Fails because it cannot install a prerelease dependency.

Can install via command line:

```
choco install dotnet-6.0-sdk --version 6.0.100-rc22150557 --pre
```

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by attempting to install dotnet-6.0-sdk version 6.0.100-rc22150557 through the ChocolateyGUI, then compare it with the working command-line installation using --pre. Trace the GUI's prerelease and dependency handling, and consider the work complete when prerelease dependencies install successfully through the GUI.
