Missing Affected Versions in Vulnerability Record #1566

Description

@keshav-space

The vulnerability https://public.vulnerablecode.io/vulnerabilities/VCID-aqmt-fmm5-aaad is missing the affected versions 0.7.1.fix1 and 0.7.4.svn.r2010. See the details here: https://github.com/pypa/advisory-database/blob/e56e7a79124764436c8b64e07d4ee7ab7f6b5605/vulns/ipython/PYSEC-2022-12.yaml.

Additionally, the vulnerability https://public.vulnerablecode.io/vulnerabilities/VCID-zdzp-uhzh-aaar also affects the jw.util package version -class.-jw.util.version.Version-, as stated here: https://github.com/pypa/advisory-database/blob/e56e7a79124764436c8b64e07d4ee7ab7f6b5605/vulns/jw.util/PYSEC-2020-341.yaml.
This version does indeed exist upstream on PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/jw.util/-class.-jw.util.version.Version-/.

The issue arises when univers is unable to parse these unusual versions. IMO we should not discard an affected or fixed version just because it is unusual and cannot be parsed by univers. Instead, should we store these versions as strings if we fail to parse them?
