Description
**Describe the bug**
`cabal` does not complain, neither at parse time or with `cabal check`, about [incorrect PVP version numbers](https://pvp.haskell.org/#version-numbers).
**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
```
cabal get scroll
cd scroll-1.20180421/ # notice incorrect, 2 numbers only, version number
cabal check
```
**Expected behavior**
Something has to flag it as an error/warning, although I am not sure it is better at parse time or at check time.
**System information**
- Debian
- cabal version 3.6.2.0
