This fixes an issue with
bump_version.py
where we were originally bumping to major, but that results in an incorrect ordering when the next release after a pre-release is not a major release.For example,
Let's say the current version is 10.0.0, and the next release will be 10.1.0--a feature release. If the pre-release is published as 11.0.0.devNNN then the 10.1.0 release will sort before the pre-release, which is incorrect.
The solution is to always bump the pre-release by only its minor version.
