Expose preview releases as pwsh-preview, not pwsh.
However, can we support simultaneous installation of a preview release and a stable release? If not, this isn't worth the effort.
Don't forget about pwsh-np-preview
Implementation notes:
Publish pwsh-preview to a different npm package name, to support parallel installations.
To keep internal implementation simple, can keep the pwsh symlink, but swap out how it's exposed via package.json bin field.
Our build script creates a collection of tarballs, then publishes them all via npm publish If the tarballs have modified names, they will publish to a different package name automatically. The code that modifies the version can also modify the name.
