[BUG] "Using .* with relational operator is superfluous and deprecated"

See original GitHub issue

Consider the package dbt-core. The install_requires contains

        "dbt-extractor~=0.4.1",

Running Grayskull this gets translated into

    - dbt-extractor >=0.4.1,==0.4.*

Then running boa with conda mambabuild -c conda-forge . or conda build -c conda-forge . produces the warning

WARNING:conda.models.version:Using .* with relational operator is superfluous and deprecated and will be removed in a future version of conda. Your spec was 0.4.*, but conda is ignoring the .* and treating it as 0.4

This results in the unsatisfiable dependency >=0.4.1,==0.4 since ==0.4 seems to imply 0.4.0 and excludes 0.4.1.

Interestingly, if I change it to a single equals (>=0.4.1,=0.4.*) then it doesn’t complain and seems to work as intended.

I think, I just bumped into this (or at least it’s related).

One of my feedstocks has the requirements ~=0.9.0 which gets translated to >=0.9.0,==0.9.*. This makes the solves throw an error despite v0.9.6 being available.

Oh yeah that’s maybe not a bad idea at all! @marcelotrevisani What do you think?
