func Names(distros []string) error

Names sorts the given list of distro names by name, version taking version semantics into account (i.e. sorting 8.1 lower then 8.10).

Invalid version numbers will create errors but the sorting continue and invalid numbers are sorted lower than anything else (so the result is still usable in a {G,T}UI).

Note that full semantic versioning (see semver.org) is not supported today but it would be once the underlying distroid parser supports better spliting.
