Cake fails to resolve dependency of Semver 3.0.0

[rngcntr]

Describe the bug
We are using Semver in our dotnet cake file to configure the build depending on the version of our project. Since updating to Semver 3.0.0, our builds fail with the following error:

Could not load /data/tools/Addins/Semver.3.0.0/lib/net5.0/Semver.dll (missing Microsoft.Extensions.Primitives, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60)
Error: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Extensions.Primitives, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60'. The system cannot find the file specified.

Steps To Reproduce
I built a minimal working/non-working exampe which consists of only two lines of build.cake:

#addin nuget:?package=semver&version=3.0.0
Semver.SemVersion.Parse("1.0.0", Semver.SemVersionStyles.Any);

Using the official SDK Docker image, the build fails.
See https://github.com/rngcntr/semver-demo for further instructions.

Expected behavior
The build should succeed using version 3.0.0, as it did before with version 2.3.0

Versions(please complete the following information):

• Package Version: 3.0.0
• Framework Version: NET8, NET9

I believe this is because Cake doesn't load dependencies of add-ins by default. The Addin directive > Dependencies section of the docs says this and says that you can specify loaddependencies=true to cause it to load dependencies. So your build.cake file would be:

#addin nuget:?package=semver&version=3.0.0&loaddependencies=true
Semver.SemVersion.Parse("1.0.0", Semver.SemVersionStyles.Any);

I haven't tried this myself yet, but I assume it will work. Please let me know if that doesn't address the problem.

Why did this change with SemVer 3.0: The dependency on Microsoft.Extensions.Primitives primitives was added in v3.0.0. In v2.x.x versions there was no dependencies on any other NuGet packages. The dependency was added to replace and extend code that was previously part of the package for StringSegement. Using Microsoft.Extensions.Primitives improved performance because it uses Span[T].

Thanks for your investigation. I can confirm that this solves the issue!
