SwiftPM allows a package to list a range of Swift versions, but a particular instance of SwiftBuild may only support compiling with specific versions of Swift. Generally speaking, SwiftPM would like to compile against highest overlapping version between the two.

Currently, the PIF only has the SWIFT_VERSION and SwiftPM does the selection itself, based on a list that it believes is the set of supported swift version in SwiftPM. Instead, a PIF should allow multiple versions to be specified and SwiftBuild chooses the version to compile (the latest overlapping version).

What do you mean by 'latest overlaping version'?
