refresh: Allow specifying a partial version via the version specification.

* guix/scripts/refresh.scm (update-specification->update-spec): Flag the
update-spec as partial when it is prefixed with '~'.
* tests/guix-refresh.sh: Test it.  Remove extraneous 'guix refresh'
invocation.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix refresh): Document it.

@cindex partial version specification, guix refresh
A per-package equivalent to --target-version is made available by
prefixing the version specification with the @samp{~} (tilde) character.
For example:
@example
$ guix refresh bash=~5 guile=~3
gnu/packages/guile.scm:354:13: guile would be upgraded from 3.0.9 to 3.0.10
gnu/packages/bash.scm:150:15: bash would be upgraded from 5.1.16 to 5.2.37
