[Feedhenry-raincatcher] How do we npm prerelease

[Wojciech Trocki]

Everything after semver is just our own convention.
We can for example use PR number to make it less confusing etc.
Do not see a big problem here as we always need to specify exact version
number for tests.

version just before publish and merge.

That's overcomplicating things and do not resolve problem as there may be
other PR with this version.
If convention is '0.5.1-alpha.x' and you want to publish something to test
it, publish it with the next value (+1). We always should use this specific
version in tests.
Exact version can be determined later when you merge.

If you symlink you can avoid publishing package.
