Overview
Add support for inferring introduced and fixed versions from GitHub compare URLs in CVE references, such as:
https://github.com/JSONPath-Plus/JSONPath/compare/v9.0.0...v10.1.0Fixes #2924
What changed
introduced -> fixedformWhy
Some CVEs include GitHub compare links that already encode useful version boundary information, but today that data is not used directly during conversion. As a result, affected ranges can remain incomplete or unanalyzed even when the reference contains enough information to infer them.
This change improves conversion quality by extracting the lower and upper version bounds directly from compare URLs when present.
Example
A reference like:
https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/compare/v0.26.1...v0.26.2can now be interpreted as:
v0.26.1v0.26.2Testing
