[T/X/Z/A v2][PATCH] UBUNTU: d/s/m/insert-ubuntu-changes: use full version numbers

Ignore: yes

Make insert-ubuntu-changes to consider full version numbers when looping
through debian.master/changelog entries and comparing the version number
of each entry with the arguments passed to the script to decide which
entries should be included in the output changelog file.

Previously, only the last number in the version was used in this
comparison. For example, when comparing 4.4.0-50.51 and 4.4.0-83.84 only
the numbers 51 and 84 were actually used in the comparison. That however
might not work properly when the major version is bumped.

For instance, using "end" as 4.4.0-50.51 and "start" as 4.4.0-83.84 used
to work fine because 84 is greater than 51. However when using "end"
as 4.11.0-10.11 and "start" as 4.13.0-2.3, no entry was being selected
since 3 is not greater than 11.
