[Dovecot] Version numbering

[Joseba Torre]

IMHO unstable versions should never go into packages/ports trees. And if they 
do, they should be clearly marked as unstable (in debian sid there're some of 
these: the package names are foobar-unstable).

Anyway, keeping development releases separated from stable ones is compatible 
with the linux kernel style numbering.

Aaaaaagur.
