Hi there,
I'm developing a project that run under Node-RED 5. When running `node-red-dev validate` for my project, I'm getting the following output:
```auto
$ npx node-red-dev validate
---Validating Package---
@platynum/certification-authority@2.1.0
✅ Package is AGPL-3.0-or-later licensed
✅ Repository/Bugs Link Supplied
✅ Package uses a Scoped Name
✅ Package uses a Scoped Name
✅ No similar named packages found
✅ Node-RED Keyword Found
› Warning: P06 NOT Compatible with Node-RED v1.3.7
› Warning: P06 Not Compatible with any current Node-RED versions
› Warning: P06 NOT Compatible with Node-RED v2.2.3
› Warning: P06 Not Compatible with any current Node-RED versions
› Warning: P06 NOT Compatible with Node-RED v3.1.15
› Warning: P06 Not Compatible with any current Node-RED versions
[..]
```
I'm having two questions here:
- Why does it output `Package uses a Scoped Name` twice?
- Why does it warn about `Not Compatible with any current Node-RED versions`? And how can I change this?

Hi @augjoh
`node-red-dev` hasn't had much attention for some time. I suspect it just hasn't been updated to be aware of NR 5.
If I get a a chance, I'll give it a look.
