Does not work when TargetFramework is net5.0-windows

See original GitHub issue

Runnin dotnet-outdated against the following project generates no updates:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">

  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>net5.0-windows</TargetFramework>
    <OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <ItemGroup>
    <PackageReference Include="Newtonsoft.Json" Version="12.0.2" />
  </ItemGroup>
</Project>

Changing the TargetFramework to simply net5.0 causes an update to be found.

I just tried the example provided and it detects an update. Also running with -u option updates the package correctly.

You can upgrade packages to the latest version by passing the -u or -u:prompt option.
