Currently if you add a package w/ spec

(or with no spec, whichdefaults to
*
) arborist tries to do a semver.subset to see if it canuse the spec that actually got installed. This fails if the new spec has
a prerelease tag in it.
This change fixes it so that if the spec was
*
it just goes ahead anduses the new spec no matter what, since no valid semver doesn't match
