App Library displays most recently updated release, rather than highest version number

[mattyg]

Describe the bug
"Install New App" page displays the most recently updated release number, rather than highest versioned release number. I'm not sure if this is a launcher issue or devhub issue.

To Reproduce
On DevHub

• Publish hApp release with tag 'app-store-ready' and version 1.0
• Publish hApp release with version 2.0
• Click "Edit Release" on the 1.0 hApp release, then "Save Changes"

In Launcher

• Click "Install New App"
  the displayed version will be 1.0

Expected behavior
The highest version number is displayed in the "Install New App" page

Logs
(my launcher log is 700+ MB, maybe just let me know if you need it)

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Ubuntu 22.04
• Holochain Launcher Version: 0.9.0

It's a Launcher issue. It filters the releases currently by last updated. Ideally it would probably show all versions and you can choose the one you'd like to install from a dropdown or similar. Since versions are non-numeric (or rather it is up to the developer whether he makes them numeric because it's just a version "name"), it's not necessarily possible to reliably sort them depending on what developers choose to enter there.
Soon the app store will be added as a layer between the DevHub and the launcher, containing meta data about apps. I think we will offer much more filtering options then.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing the broader context.
