[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 1/2] devtools: fix version pattern for fix search

[Xueming Li <xuemingl@nvidia.com>]

When scanning fixes from current(HEAD) branch, local tags were included
and reported as version. For example:
  $ git tag --contains <commit_id> --merged
  20.11_backport_202010506   // user tag
  v20.11
  v20.11.1

This patch matches DPDK officail version pattern in search, selects
the most early tag. Official tag pattern: "v<major>.<minor>"

Fixes: 752d8e097ec1 ("scripts: show fixes with release version of bug")
