Reproduction steps

Just run pnpm install in the repro

Describe the Bug

The minimumReleaseAge is set to 1440 and minimumReleaseAgeStrict is true. The state of the lockfile in the repro causes this error, which doesn't make much sense given the minimumReleaseAge is 1 day:

[ERR_PNPM_NO_MATURE_MATCHING_VERSION] Version 7.0.0-dev.20260406.1 (released 1 month ago) of @typescript/native-preview-win32-arm64 does not meet the minimumReleaseAge constraint

Expected Behavior

It should install successfully. I think there are a couple problems here. One is that the error message is misleading, because this is a time-based resolution error (albeit an incorrect one), rather than a minimumReleaseAge error. The other is that this should be able to install successfully, but because there isn't a time field populated for @typescript/native-preview in the lockfile, it fails. It's probably a bug that the time wasn't populated in the lockfile for @typescript/native-preview, but then there should be a better fallback for when it doesn't exist.
