jpackage will normalize macOS version read from release file to 3 components and Windows to 4 components. See `MacFromOptions` and `WinApplication`. Normalization is done for application and package builder just use it from application. macOS limits application version CFBundleVersion to 3 components, thus to align with Windows it was limited to 3. Testing code needs to do same.
