[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Add support for sorting caret ('^') higher than base version (#597)

[Igor Gnatenko]

1.1^20160101 means 1.1 version (base) and patches which were applied at
that date on top of it.

* 1.1^201601 > 1.1
* 1.1^201601 < 1.1.1

Second case might be fulfilled with tilde separator, but it's not obvious
and doesn't fulfil first case.
