Description

Go 1.22 provided go/version std package

https://pkg.go.dev/go/version

What do you think about adding a section to your readme explaining the difference with your lib?

I feel it's a good thing to list an alternative and explain how they differ and when the stdlib is enough

Start with the repository README and the Go 1.22 go/version documentation linked in the issue. Compare the standard library package with this library's version parsing and constraint features, then add a section explaining their differences and when the standard library is sufficient.
