Don Ho a06b404708 Add Notepad++ compatible versions in plugin list
Implement: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/nppPluginList/issues/416

While PluginAdmin loading nppPluginList.dll, it will check an attribute "npp-compatible-versions" (optional),
in order to determinate if plugin is compatible to the current version of Notepad++. If plugin is not compatible,
then this plugin will be ignored, therefore it won't be shown on the PluginAdmin's plugin list.
Note that it's only about pluginsAdmin's plugin list:
it prevent from Notepad++ install/update a plugin non-compatible to current version of Notepad++,
but it still allows Notepad++ load this plugin in question, if it's already installed.

Here is the attribite "npp-compatible-versions" looks like in plugin list json file:
```
{
	"name": "npp-pluginList",
	"version": "1.4.7",
	"arch": "32",
	"npp-plugins": [
		{
			"folder-name": "demoPluginA",
			"display-name": "Demo Plugin A",
			"version": "1.8.7",
			"npp-compatible-versions": "[4.2,6.6.6]",
			"id": "9c566a9083ef66a0ce93a3ce5f55977faea559b5b0993e37a1461b87f4aeb6f0",
			...
		},
		{
			"folder-name": "demoPluginB",
			"display-name": "Demo Plugin B",
			"version": "1.1.8.7",
			"id": "8a6b9dadbf2ec37d5c60a12a5445f0eec2ef00e6eaa80452925789fd73950193",
			...
		},
		...
	}
}
```
It's optional. In the case of its absence, it's considered compatible to all versions of Notepad++.
The format of value for "npp-compatible-versions" is following (no white space is allowed):

"6.9"          : exact version 6.9
"[4.2,6.6.6]"  : from version 4.2 to 6.6.6 inclusive
"[8.3,]"       : any version from 8.3 to the latest one
"[,8.2.1]"     : 8.2.1 and any previous version
