⚙️ [Maintenance]: Lock Pester test dependency to the 6.x major version

[Marius Storhaug (MariusStorhaug)]

Moves the Pester test dependency from an exact 5.8.0 pin to a 6.x major-version lock, now that Pester 6.0.0 is published.

#Requires -Modules @{ ModuleName = 'Pester'; ModuleVersion = '6.0.0'; MaximumVersion = '6.999.999'; GUID = 'a699dea5-2c73-4616-a270-1f7abb777e71' }

• ModuleVersion + MaximumVersion accept any Pester 6.x, so routine minor/patch updates no longer need a PR — only a new major does.
• The GUID still pins module identity. Both are enforced by PowerShell at discovery time.

The install side is locked to the same major in PSModule/Invoke-Pester#70. Part of the dependency-management epic PSModule/Process-PSModule#356.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the test script’s #Requires -Modules directive to allow any Pester 6.x release (while still pinning the module GUID), replacing the previous exact pin to Pester 5.8.0. This aligns test discovery with a major-version lock so minor/patch updates don’t require follow-up PRs.

Changes:

• Replaced RequiredVersion = '5.8.0' with a 6.x range using ModuleVersion = '6.0.0' and MaximumVersion = '6.999.999'.
• Kept the module identity pin via the existing Pester module GUID.
