tools.func

📝 Provide a clear and concise description of the issue.

I think the handling of check_for_gh_release pinned version in tools.func is incorrect.
check_for_gh_release "kitchenowl" "TomBursch/kitchenowl" "v0.7.8" works properly, but
check_for_gh_release "authentik" "goauthentik/authentik" "version/2026.2.2" not found upstream

🔄 Steps to reproduce the issue.

source ./misc/tools.func
source ./misc/core.func
check_for_gh_release "authentik" "goauthentik/authentik" "version/2026.2.2"

❌ Paste the full error output (if available).

⠧ Checking for update: authentik✖️ Pinned version version/2026.2.2 not found upstream

🖼️ Additional context (optional).

I believe the source of the error is this code snippet:
https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVED/blob/77a91b7f6e5a006fa6c220f7af38c4f1b08d97ef/misc/tools.func#L2460-L2469
I think the problem is caused by the removal of the letter v in line 2462.
I tested it, and if the pinned version was handled the same way here as it was in this same function previously here, then it would work properly.

This worked for me during testing:

  # Pinned version handling
  if [[ -n "$pinned_version_in" ]]; then
    if [[ "$pinned_version_in" =~ ^v[0-9] ]]; then
    	local pin_clean="${pinned_version_in#v}"
    else
    	local pin_clean="${pinned_version_in}"
    fi
	local match_raw=""
    for i in "${!clean_tags[@]}"; do
      if [[ "${clean_tags[$i]}" == "$pin_clean" ]]; then
        match_raw="${raw_tags[$i]}"
        break
      fi
    done
