fix: use prerelease versioning strategy for beta releases (#104)

nicknisi · web-flow · commit 8385201ef254 · 2026-03-25T19:50:51.000-05:00
The `default` versioning strategy ignores `prerelease` and
`prerelease-type` fields entirely. Switch to `prerelease` strategy
to actually produce beta version numbers.
