Currently, the plugin displays available minor/patch versions that are downgrades to the current major version.

Concretely, if the current version is 3.11.1, the check offers 2.16.28 as a possible minor upgrade. This makes little sense as admins will rarely want to downgrade from their current version to a lower major version. It's better to only display available versions that are greater than the current semantic version. In the case for a current version of 3.11.1, that would be 4.0.0, 3.12.0 or 3.11.2.

This fix changes this behavior, and there is no change required by the user.
