feat(validators): Validate that Server versions are not ranges (#435)

<!-- Provide a brief summary of your changes -->

Validates that server versions are not ranges.


**NB:** This also introduces `validateVersion` as a check on the
top-level `ValidateServerJSON`, as previously we were only checking
version ranges of packages via `validatePackageField` (i.e. `latest`
would have still been a valid top level server version), despite #413's
wording suggesting otherwise.

## Motivation and Context
Solves https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/issues/415

## How Has This Been Tested?

Tests added in `internal/validators/validators_test.go`

`make check` is clean.

## Breaking Changes
As per @domdomegg's comment, we should
> check nobody has done this in the existing registry data (if they
have, we should explore and understand why people have done this / if
it's valid etc.).
