Research direction

Start by tracing how this repository tags releases, using the v11.0.0-alpha.0 release linked in the issue as the example. Confirm that pre-releases receive a pre-release tag rather than latest, and verify that Renovate no longer discovers them through latest.

Description

bug

(Release v11.0.0-alpha.0 has manually been updated)
