[TYPO3-core] Version numbers in Releases line

Indeed that's a drawback. I was suggesting this because what I would 
expect from usual software development is that you don't really know 
which new version number you're aiming at when you start development. A 
minor release might become a major one. This is exactly what happened 
when TYPO3 3.9 actually became 4.0 (you could see the legacy of this 
change in the version compatibility check, which was actually still 
relying of 3.9 rather than 4.0). So we could stick with 4.8 and just 
know, at a later point, than 4.8 became 6.0. There are already patches 
that went in with 4.8 as their target version anyway.
