Should the plugin leverage opam formulas for `npm-version` constraints? #4

The plugin could leverage opam formulas to constraint the versions of the packages. For example, rather than writing:

{npm-version = "^16.0.2"}

One could write:

{npm-version >= "16.0.2" & npm-version < "17.0.0"}

This would allow removing the vendored esy code, but on the other hand might be less convenient.
