Transform fails when using a nightly build of Node

[notpeelz]

I'm trying to use esbuild on a nightly build of Node, but I get this error:

Error: Transform failed with 1 error:
error: Invalid version: "20.0.0-nightly2022122151246139e7"

From the looks of it, the version regexp seems a bit too strict:

esbuild/pkg/api/api_impl.go

Line 287 in 270a210

var versionRegex = regexp.MustCompile(`^([0-9]+)(?:\.([0-9]+))?(?:\.([0-9]+))?$`)

semver.org suggests this regexp:

^(?P<major>0|[1-9]\d*)\.(?P<minor>0|[1-9]\d*)\.(?P<patch>0|[1-9]\d*)(?:-(?P<prerelease>(?:0|[1-9]\d*|\d*[a-zA-Z-][0-9a-zA-Z-]*)(?:\.(?:0|[1-9]\d*|\d*[a-zA-Z-][0-9a-zA-Z-]*))*))?(?:\+(?P<buildmetadata>[0-9a-zA-Z-]+(?:\.[0-9a-zA-Z-]+)*))?$

Closing as a duplicate of #2760. This prerelease version of node is not in esbuild’s internal feature database, so it is meaningless to ask for esbuild to accept it. The target setting deliberately only accepts version triples.
