Semver should be able to understand '4.0.0-dev' as the valid version string.
There could be some other requirement problems, like <=, >.
For example, 4.0.0-dev is < 4.0.0.
So, if the requirement is >=4.0.0, then the version string '4.0.0-dev' will 
fail to satisfy the requirement.

Subject: [DISCUSS] Dropping the -dev suffix

Recently, a issue (CB-9021) popped up where mobile spec was failing because the 
semver check failed on a platform due to `-dev` being in the version and not 
valid.

I think we should remove -dev from our versions. Right now, after we do a 
release, we add -dev to show that the repo is in development and hasn't been 
released. I think we can accomplish the same by just bumping the version 
(minor?) in the package.json and just know it isn't released by seeing what is 
published on npm.

Thoughts?
