[Bug 1787757] [NEW] pinning doesn't recognizes releases names

[Alfredo Rezinovsky]

Public bug reported:

Because pinning doesn't recongnizes releases names and treats them
alphabetically it fails knowing which package is newest.

This failed because the alphabet has ended and release names started
again with A, B...

Eg: 13.2.1-1bionic seems as a downgrade for 13.2.1-1xenial when it's
really an upgrade.

** Affects: apt (Ubuntu)
