Title: Added version aliasing.

Hello, I wanted to add some stuff in Silex today... but I cannot fetch deps through composer, so investigated things and made this PR

Problem (example):
symfony/routing have dev-master version which I can fetch from packagist. Dev-master is alias for 2.1-dev version... but when I set this version directly I cannot fetch it (yeah WAT)... I do no want set dev-master in my composer.json cause new version of something can appear at any time.

This is my propsal how to resolve it. Please take a look.
