Description

Currently the feature service uses strings for many different purposes:

• feature name
• feature name glob
• feature version
• feature version range

It is difficult to tell what purpose such a string has.

I would like to create a type FeatureReq(name, VersionRange) that describes better what we do. This should make the code a lot easier to understand.

Ideally we would also reflect this in the service interface but the stay backwards compatbile I will only use the new types internally.
