Inconsistent Version parameter behavior

Steps to reproduce

There seems to be two types of behavior for the Version parameter when accepting a version range.

Any version matching the range criteria has the action performed:

• Find-PSResource
• Get-PSResource
• Uninstall-PSResource

Only the highest version matching the range criteria is used:

• Install-PSResource
• Update-PSResource
• Save-PSResource

This could lead to some confusion with the different behaviors for version ranges when the various commands. In NuGet the version range only returns the highest version that matches the range. I don't know the best resolution for this issue is but it might just need to be documentation or a bit more.

Here are some ideas:

• Update Find-PSResource to only return the highest version for a given version range to match install, update, and save. Then add a switch parameter to return all versions that meet the version range.
• Change Get-PSResource and Uninstall-PSResource to not accept ranges or just document the behavior difference in help.
