Describe the bug

bootctl status shows this for me:

Available Boot Loaders on ESP:
          ESP: /boot (/dev/disk/by-partuuid/4491941f-d624-45fe-bd5f-3da695baf5ed)
         File: └─/EFI/systemd/systemd-bootx64.efi (systemd-boot 249.4)
         File: └─/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI (systemd-boot 249.4)

When I try to upgrade my system, I get the error “could not find any previously installed systemd-boot”. This is because the systemd-boot-builder.py script can't deal with systemd-boot versions with a minor version appended to it, since the regex is \d+:

Fixing this is not quite straightforward sadly, since the version is later used for comparison, so fixing this requires adding support for proper major/minor version comparison in this script.
