Use Semantic Versioning

Hi, My problem is that the terraform provider doesn't use semantic versioning. This has caused me quite a few problems. Firstly - it's difficult when scrolling through your version releases to understand what's breaking and what's not (I lost an hour today having to check all the releases for updates, and then applying every couple of versions from an outdated provider to make sure there were no breaking changes). Secondly, it means I have to pin a specific version in my terraform provider rather than leaving it to auto-update to the latest minor version "~> 1.0". Lastly, it makes using dependabot/renovate much harder, as its not able to auto update the latest minor change. I saw there was already an issue that had some discussion but no follow up https://github.com/mongodb/terraform-provider-mongodbatlas/issues/2656 It would be great if you could get re-evaluate this feature request. Other terraform providers use semver and it'd be great if you did too. Thanks.
