Bootstrap script - requiredversion about modulebuilder HOT 2 CLOSED

In the ModuleSpecification constructor it actually expects ModuleVersion for minimum version (confusing)
But yeah, that sounds like a quick and easy change...
PR coming

Note that's only for those building this project, and it's best practice to pin versions (but also keeping them up to date), so that might not be accepted by all.

I'm torn on this one.

On the one hand, PowerShell and PowerShellGet have no awareness of version number semantics and will accept and use even a version that's multiple major version changes ahead. This is a major problem to me.

On the other hand, you're obviously right that build.ps1 isn't currently processing the RequiredModules but is instead relying on autoloading, so the newer version is going to get loaded regardless...

However, more importantly, I tested this back and forth the way it is now, but I'm not sure that the MinimumVersion has the same behavior for Install-Module in terms of bypassing the need to -Force install for things like Pester that are already installed. Does it?
